[su_dropcap style=”flat” size=”4″]O[/su_dropcap]kay, we’re going to get right to the nitty gritty. Space exploration is getting expensive and everyone’s favorite Science Guy needs our help. Bill Nye and The Planetary Society—which Nye is CEO of—are working to revitalize a technology that once proposed about 100 years in the form of the LightSail, a revolutionary solar sailing spacecraft.

Using solar propulsion technology, the LightSail feeds off of the unlimited energy of the sun. That means, it gets going and it keeps going. Which also means that will we be able to explore space at a much lower cost. Imagine, a simple but efficient invention that brings space exploration back from the brink of financial purgatory.
