NASA's solar sail is tumbling, but that's part of the planACS3 spacecraft is successfully using solar sails for propulsion and exploring future applications in space missions.
Do look up! NASA unfurls massive shiny solar sail in orbitNASA's ACS3 successfully demonstrates solar sail technology, converting sunlight into propulsion for future space exploration.
NASA's Experimental Solar Sail Is Tumbling in OrbitNASA's ACS3 mission is testing solar sail technology for propulsion without heavy propellants, but the spacecraft's stability remains uncertain after recent deployment.
