Built with support from NASA&#8217;s Earth Science Technology Office (ESTO), the Concurrent Artificially-intelligent Spectrometry Lidar System (CASALS) could help researchers map the features of Earth&#8217;s surface in detail. Rather than mechanically steering a laser with moving mirrors, CASALS steers light using wavelength itself, generating a continuous, 3D swath of the ground below.<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2026-10-nasa-casals-instrument-bridges-gaps.html\">Go to Source<\/a><br \/>\nAuthor: <\/p>\n<div>The latest science news on astronomy, astrobiology,  and space exploration from Phys.org.<\/div>\n<hr>\n<p>SPACEPERIUM CORPS &#038; RESEARCH CONTRIBUTORS<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Please comment below with research and links for fellow members to conduct further research into this area.<br \/>\nYou must be registered and signed into SPACEPERIUM BLOG in order to leave your comment and get credited!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NASA&#039;s CASALS instrument bridges gaps in 3D maps of Earth&#039;s surface A team of researchers at NASA&#8217;s Goddard Space Flight&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"registered_only","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4119","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-spaceperium-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycbh.com\/Games\/spaceperium\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4119","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycbh.com\/Games\/spaceperium\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycbh.com\/Games\/spaceperium\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycbh.com\/Games\/spaceperium\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycbh.com\/Games\/spaceperium\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4119"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mycbh.com\/Games\/spaceperium\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4119\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycbh.com\/Games\/spaceperium\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4119"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycbh.com\/Games\/spaceperium\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4119"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycbh.com\/Games\/spaceperium\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4119"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
