A Mayler sailboat named LightSail 2, which is about 5,000 inches in diameter, has been deployed in the Earth's outer orbit, a move that can prove to be an important step forward for low-cost satellites.
According to the British Daily Mail, the spacecraft on the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket was launched at the end of June this year in the hope of putting the first solar-powered vehicle in the outer space orbit around low-cost land.
The work of the spacecraft does not require any fuel, and instead is powered by particles of light emitted from the sun.
According to the design of the vehicle, the solar energy will propel the sail forward, where the sailing vehicle was tested in 2016.
The thickness of the vehicle was about 4.5 microns, less than the width of human hair, and the length of the sail was 4 meters, and the width of 5: 6 meters and consists of four sails Square triangular, connected to electronic arms.
The total area of the sailing vehicle was 32 square meters (344 square feet).
