Wired reports that space-based lasers designed to transmit energy are about to undergo their first real-world test. The experiment would mark a milestone for efforts to beam power from space to Earth, a long-discussed concept that startups and researchers hope could one day deliver clean energy across distances. The technology remains early-stage and unproven at scale.

Why now: A first live demonstration of space-based energy transmission is a notable milestone for the emerging space power industry
