"On Thursday, 29 March 2007, a Cisco Systems router, flying
in low Earth Orbit onboard the UK-DMC satellite built by
Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd (SSTL), was successfully
configured by NASA Glenn Research Center to use IPsec and
IPv6 technologies in space."

Its good to know that IPv6 is finally being used along
with encryption! Albeit in outer space, maybe one day we
could all catch up with this "out of this world"
technology that people could now claim is "light years"
ahead of us.
