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.
NASA Solar Sail Spacecraft Damaged, Spinning Through SpaceNASA's ACS3 solar sail is currently spinning due to an unengaged attitude control system, but valuable data is still being collected.
Solar Sail powered spacecraft visible over London - if weather permitsThe ACS3 spacecraft, using a solar sail, exemplifies innovative space propulsion, providing potential for extended acceleration in future exploration.
NASA solar sail boom demonstrator reaches orbitNASA's Advanced Composite Solar Sail System (ACS3) CubeSat successfully established contact with Earth post-launch.
