NASA's small solar sail mission

By Justin G. on 24MAY06MON

In my April Facts and Ideas post, I mentioned NASA’s solar sail demonstrator had launched. I got rather fed up with the coverage being intentionally sensational, saying things like “it’s deployed” in the headline and then reading on to find that the event was separation from the launch vehicle. So I went to the source, and so can you.

Note that this feed is for all of NASA’s small satellites, so there may be some other interesting things that aren’t about solar sails included as a bonus.
