On October 8, 2026, L3Harris Technologies (NYSE: LHX) announced that it was selected by NASA to design, assemble, integrate, and test an all--glass telescope for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission. Led by the European Space Agency in partnership with NASA, the mission aims to detect gravitational waves in space by tracking distance fluctuations between a triangular constellation of three satellites spanning 2.5 million kilometers. Under the contract, L3Harris will develop telescope hardware built from ceramic glass designed to transmit and receive precision laser beams across deep--space distances, advancing the program from previous prototype units toward flight hardware integration.
