The European Space Agency (ESA) successfully launched the first telecommunication satellite and first node of the European Data Relay System (EDRS) from the space port in Baikonur, on Friday.
Dubbed the European Data Relay System (EDRS) aka 'SpaceDataHighway,' the network of telecommunication satellites is set to provide high-speed laser communication in space as well as ‘Big Data’ relay services, facilitating a quicker access to time-critical data such as in emergency situations. Once fully in operation ERDS is expected to be able to transfer up to 50 terabytes to earth daily.
