Solar sails have emerged as a groundbreaking propulsion technique that harnesses the pressure from sunlight to generate thrust for spacecraft. When photons of light strike the surface of the sail, they transfer momentum, propelling the spacecraft forward. While the thrust may be minimal, the efficiency of solar sails lies in their ability to sustain propulsion
