天基任务对激光设计提出了一套独特的要求。CALIPSO激光发射分系统(LTS)的开发从使用风险降低激光器(RRL)的成功寿命测试开始，随后是使用原型飞行硬件的密集设计验证阶段，并完成了飞行硬件的正式鉴定。我们将更详细地描述这一进程，并审查遇到的问题和吸取的经验教训。根据这一经验，我们为设计和建造未来的天基激光器制定了一套指导方针。
Space-based missions impose a unique set of requirements on laser designs. The development of the CALIPSO Laser Transmitter Subsystem (LTS) began with a successful lifetime test using the Risk Reduction Laser (RRL), followed with an intensive design validation phase using prototype flight hardware, and completed with formal qualification of the flight hardware. We will describe this process in more detail and review the issues encountered and lessons learned. From this experience we developed a set of guidelines for designing and building future space-based lasers.
