Alright, I should probably do more work on this old thing, but I actually quite like the concept. Travel times to and from Saturn using constant acceleration...of one Earth gravity! Quite achievable with nuclear pulse propulsion...

Japan's OPENS Program Aims to Explore the Outer Solar System with Solar Sails

This hype glosses over the real limits—solar sails inch along on scarce power, risky science returns, and long transit times. Excitement aside, practical hurdles and budget constraints could throttle this dream from Saturn flybys to mere demonstrations.

Japan's OPENS Program Aims to Explore the Outer Solar System with Solar Sails

The OPENS program, initiated by Japan's space agency JAXA, is an ambitious project to explore the outer solar system using small solar sails. The project follows in the footsteps of the IKAROS mission, which in 2010 became the first to successfully deploy an interplanetary solar sail. OPENS will beg... [More info]

Simulations show Saturn's moon Enceladus shoots less ice into space than previous estimates

In the 17th century, astronomers Christiaan Huygens and Giovanni Cassini trained their telescopes on Saturn and uncovered a startling truth: the planet's luminous bands were not solid appendages, but vast, separate rings composed of countless nested arcs.

Discovery of 2023 KQ14 Ammonite challenges models of outer solar system formation

Astronomers have identified a new distant object in the solar system's outer reaches, named 2023 KQ14 or Ammonite, belonging to the rare class of sednoids—trans-Neptunian bodies with orbits far beyond Neptune. Unlike the three previously known sednoids, Ammonite's orbit does not align with theirs, i... [More info]

La mystérieuse Planète Neuf serait cachée aux confins du Système solaire. Comment est-elle arrivée là?

Une neuvième planète massive serait tapie en périphérie de notre système solaire. Selon une étude parue en juin, elle aurait été malmenée par d'autres planètes il y a plusieurs milliards d'années.
