Abstract
Since solar sailing employs the speed of sunlight to drive spacecraft, it is an efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional propulsion technologies. The physics of photon compression, the significance of novel materials and systems that enhance sailing performance, and the appropriate testing of solar sailing systems are all covered in this research paper. The main solar sailing projects— LightSail, NEA Scout, and IKAROS—are examined in this paper, and their merits, demerits, and contributions to the field are discussed. Potential solar sailing technology for extended space travel are also covered, along with space sustainability. Consider how crucial it is for space exploration in the future. The goal of this research is to demonstrate the transformative potential of navigation and to spark further developments in the exciting field of space aerospace engineering by effectively integrating mission data and current research in the ever-changing landscape of space exploration.
