NASA is on its way to advancing space exploration with its latest innovation, the Advanced Composite Solar Sail System (ACS3). The ACS3 is likely to launch on April 24 from New Zealand. The ACS3 represents a major advancement in deployable structures and materials technologies designed specifically for solar sail propulsion systems. The ACS3 is intended for future deep space missions that will likely lower costs and offer higher efficiency. The ACS3 will use the pressure of sunlight for propulsion, much like how a sailboat captures the wind. This approach might eliminate the need for conventional rocket propellants. The successful deployment of this technology could open the door to more frequent and far-reaching space missions in the future. Boeing’s Starliner Spacecraft To Fly First Crewed Mission to International Space Station on May 6.
