Can someone help me think of a good acronym for a sort of RADAR or LIDAR detection system for a spacecraft?
I understand that RADAR or LIDAR would work just fine when detecting things in space, but I was wondering if someone could help me think up a cool acronym that would seem more space-age for a sci-fi I’m writing for a warship spacecraft.
It has to make sense, by the way.
Thank you.
