Space Sailing - Solar Pressure
http://sail.quarkweb.com/light.htm
SPACE SAILING TECHNICAL SECTION. Maxwell's equations of electromagnetic radiation imply that light carries momentum, as does the quantum theory of light. By Newton's Second Law, changing the momentum of light by reflection results in an applied force and, by his Third Law, a reactive force acts upon the reflector, as shown in the figure. The resultant force is perpendicular to a perfect flat reflector. This force is what drives a sailing ship. The solar intensity W. At 1 AU is 1367 W/m. A ship can have m...
Space Sailing Activity
http://sail.quarkweb.com/activity.htm
SPACE SAILING ACTIVITY SECTION. The Invention of Space Sailing. This section describes the history of the invention of space sailing and related events on the theory of light. It appears that Jules Verne may have been the first to recognize the space sailing concept in 1865, although Johannes Kepler might have been first with the idea around 1610. Frankfort, 1604; De cometis liballi tres. Augsburg, 1619; he possibly referred to sunlight effects in New Astronomy. JAMES CLERK MAXWELL, in 1864, published hi...
Space Sailing Glossary
http://sail.quarkweb.com/glossary.htm
Alpha - angle between the incident light and the ship's reference axis or the normal to a flat reflector. Areal density - the mass divided by the sail area, expressed in g/m. Typically using sail mass, sail bus mass, sail bus payload mass, or membrane mass before fabrication into a sail. Boom - a linear structural element that holds a sail(s) open, typically extending from a ship's center or from a mast. Heliogyro - a rotating sailer using long blades for sails; the blades twist to control the ship.
Space Sailing - Voyages
http://sail.quarkweb.com/voyages.htm
SPACE SAILING TECHNICAL SECTION. Inner Solar System: The Interplanetary Shuttle. The following table includes some sailing ship capabilities in the inner solar system, showing payload in metric tons and trip times for two ship sizes. Sailing ships can complete these voyages and return to Earth for subsequent voyages, operating as an Interplanetary Shuttle. Sailing ships are expected to have useful lives of roughly 30 years, during which they consume no propellant. The space science community places a hig...
Space Sailing - Operations
http://sail.quarkweb.com/operations.htm
SPACE SAILING TECHNICAL SECTION. May be used as rigging among mast and booms or for connecting to other parts of a ship's structure. Sailing ships can spiral in toward a planet or away from it. They can escape from a planet or sail into a capture orbit from interplanetary space. The time required to operate from orbits at lunar distance and interplanetary space is typically 1 to 2 weeks. Operating between low Earth orbit and interplanetary space would typically take 4 to 6 months. Areal density, g/m.

Just as the internet is growing dramatically, so is interest in solar sails. The last time I checked, I found 305,000 hits for "solar OR light OR space sail OR sails OR sailing". Therefore, I will provide a selection of web pages, rather than attempt to link to everything. Here are some links to search the internet for solar sail information:.

Piles of Philosophy: February 2010
http://pilesofphilosophy.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Wayne Yuen's blog about philosophy, and everything else that strikes his fancy. Wednesday, February 24, 2010. What you can do with my body after I'm dead. In my ethics class, and in general when the topic of death comes up, I usually tell people that they can do anything that they want with my body after I'm dead. Kick it to the curb, feed it to cultures, mummify it, have it stuffed. But there is a possibility that it would not be in my interest for my body to be fed to the vultures. Cryonics. Now there ...

LightSail | The Planetary Society
A solar sailing spacecraft. From The Planetary Society. LightSail™ is a citizen-funded project by The Planetary Society, the world's largest non-profit space advocacy group. We’re sending a small spacecraft into Earth orbit carrying large, reflective sails measuring 32 square meters (344 square feet). We successfully completed a test flight in June 2015 that paved the way for a second, full-fledged solar sailing demonstration in 2016. Photons have energy and momentum. Tiny Spacecraft, Big Design.

Hallo und Grüß Gott auf Alexander’s Segelblog
Hallo und Grüß Gott auf Alexander’s Segelblog. Hier geht es im Grunde eigentlich nur um mein Segelboot. Ein Korsar! Dieses Boot hat aber Geschichte und die möchte ich hier erzählen. Nebenbei gehe ich auch fremd und segel auf anderen Korsaren und seit 2011 auch auf dem Contender. Darüber berichte ich hier!
