Opportunities and Challenges in Free Space Optics: Inter-Satellite Communications, Lidars, and PNT (Positioning, Navigation, and Timing). Abstract Recent developments in communications, such as providing broadband access to rural areas and enabling high bandwidth inter-satellite communications open new opportunities in free space optical communications. In this talk, recent testbed development efforts on more than 10km free space optical communication link development with more than 80Gb/s data capacity under the NSF PAWR program in rural Iowa State. Additionally, present challenges associated
