A new area of remote sensing and communication is opening up, thanks
to groundbreaking technology from the European Space Agency.
StarTiger, a European Space Agency project, has taken the first
terahertz picture of a human hand. Terahertz radiation lies on the
boundary between radio and light waves and is far more difficult to
detect and analyse than either, but is of huge interest for medical,
security, environmental and communication uses; the technology could,
for instance, theoretically carry wireless data at terabit speeds.
