A system for operating a laser transmitting system for optical space communications, in particular in combination with the generation of amplified laser light under space conditions. The optical laser transmitting system here consists of a laser,, acting as an optical oscillator, and an optical semiconductor amplifier,which are connected with each other by a polarization-maintaining optical fiber,, or alternatively by an optical space connection. A light beam,exiting from the optical semiconductor amplifier,is converted via a special optical lens system,into a collimated light beam,with an even lateral extension and is radiated after further optical conversions.
