The LIDAR In-space Technology Experiment (LITE) is scheduled for flight in mid-1994 on the Space Shuttle Atlantis (STS-65) as its primary payload. The purpose of this experiment to gather data based on the atmospheric backscatter from the earth's upper and lower atmospheres from the three-color neodymium:YAG-based lidar. The heart of this experiment is the Laser Transmitter Module (LTM). Designed and built by TITAN/SPECTRON, the LTM is a dual redundant flashlamp-pumped Nd:YAG laser that emits three wavelengths at 1064, 532, and 355 nm. This paper describes the systems approach used to develop, test, and build the world's first high-powered laser system for use in space.
