A thread devoted to anything related to solar sailing. I don’t know if this would be viable for interstellar deep space travel, but this seems perfect for shorter range travel within star systems. Also, there’s a certain romanticism attached to the idea of quite literally sailing on starlight. I hope we are using these on manned missions in my lifetime.
