Description:
Solar sails work by capturing solar winds, in much the same way a sailboat captures terrestrial breezes, pulling a spacecraft through the cosmos. The first iteration of such a device was tested back in 2010, but now NASA has launched one into low Earth orbit and is testing its most advanced one to date.

The Welsh government have now said they’re ready to listen, and we could see changes soon.")
