Turing Test
“I propose to consider the question, ‘Can machines think?’… the best strategy is [for
the machine] to try to provide answers that would naturally be given by a man.”

"NASA missions are generating progressively more data which must be transmitted back to Earth reliably, efficiently, and inexpensively. Optical communications will be the key to realizing the NASA goals of a virtual presence in space and development of an interplanetary network“ http://lasers.jpl.nasa.gov/PAGES/about.html
