Spacecraft could soon carry sophisticated polarisation-sensitive optics, thanks to innovative design that miniaturises optical technology to a tiny fraction of its current size. These new components, based on metasurfaces, would be ideal for nanosatellites, cheap, small satellites only tens of centimetres. Current polarisation optics are typically of that scale, and so are prohibitively large and heavy for this spacecraft. The...
