Our project partner, Dr. Ivo Müürsepp from Tallinn University of Technology (TalTech), was recently featured in the science magazine Imeline Teadus. In a short interview, he shared insights from the E-Sailors project — a collaborative international effort to develop and test electric solar sail technology for moving satellites in space. The piece highlights how long, ultra-thin charged wires interact with the solar wind to provide continuous thrust for spacecraft, a promising frontier in space propulsion.
