Caltech scientists are developing laser-driven lightsails that could push spacecraft beyond our solar system. Their research ...

Lightsails operate by harnessing radiation pressure from a light source, such as the Sun or lasers, to propel a spacecraft.

"The lightsail will travel faster than any previous spacecraft, with potential to eventually open interstellar distances to ...

Scientists at the California Institute of Technology have taken a major step toward developing lightsails that could one day carry tiny spacecraft to distant star systems. The new findings detail ...

Russian scientists claim to have developed a plasma electric rocket engine that could enable travel to Mars in just one to ...

Climbers are scaling Everest in just 3 days using xenon gas therapy for rapid acclimatization. While it boosts safety, ...

Tachyons, faster-than-light particles, challenge Einstein's theory, hinting at time travel. New models suggest they may reshape physics, causality, and cosmic expansion.

Scientists are also testing the concept of lightsails that use the pressure from lasers or starlight to propel spacecraft. However, it must be noted that these technologies are still in their ...
