This is so cool! You make me excited every time I see your videos! Keep going!

Just like america did a live tv show of how 1st man landed on moon .... I wnt to see same thing ... A man landing on a earth like exoplanet .... Hope I'd be alive to see such amazing victory of humanity 💗💗

This is pretty cool and all but when we get to alpha centauri it will take 4 years just to send one command to the spacecraft then another 4 to get back so unless we get it in orbit around a star it’s going to only send like 2 bits of information

Great video kobi

Ayyy, someone here knows what's up!

Wow 50 years! Thats amazing

For some people who might be confused, in space there are no particles so no air resistance

Imagine going 10% the speed of light when the ship need to slow down, the G forces would be ridiculously unsurvivable right?

True. But I would imagine they would have to slow down way befor it

Just close the sails super slow i guess, speed isnt the problem for us acceleration is

It's actually a very low acceleration.

Well, you need gravity in order to experience G-Force. There is no gravity in space so I don't foresee this being an issue

My favourite thing about solar sails is that you can use lasers to continue accelerating when you're too far away from a star to use it's photons to push you.

*163 km/s* “it may sound fast but it would take nearly 8000 years to reach the closest star to us” Me: That’s how fast my dad drives me to school…

I pray this get done quick and works to expectations 🎉🎉

OMG, Last year in my class 10th. I really thought this concept& even made a theory like exactly what you explained!!!! Man!!

Yes

The fact that the impact of photons will push the rocket away from star not towards it...
