Lockheed Martin to develop Moon-to-Earth satellite communications network

Lockheed Martin has announced the creation of Crescent Space, a new spinoff dedicated to lunar infrastructure. Its first project is a Moon-to-Earth satellite network called Parsec, which will use a constellation of small lunar satellites to provide a non-stop connection between astronauts, their equipment, and people back on Earth. The system will also provide navigation assistance.
