mastodon 4.6.9The "Marietta Blau" quantum optical ground station is situated at Hafelekar mountain at an altitude of 2,265 m and will connect the world-leading quantum optics laboratories at the University of Innsbruck to a global quantum internet.
Funded by the FFG project InnQOGNiTo
Our optical ground station is now operational! First satellite tracking tests are underway, an exciting step toward free-space quantum key distribution. Stay tuned for more updates from Hafelekar!
