🚨🇺🇸LASER-POWERED LIGHTSAILS COULD CATAPULT SPACECRAFT TO OTHER GALAXIES Caltech scientists are developing laser-driven lightsails that could launch tiny probes to Alpha Centauri at unprecedented speeds, turning sci-fi into reality. The Breakthrough Starshot Initiative, launched by Stephen Hawking and Yuri Milner in 2016, aims to harness laser-powered “lightsails” to send these probes at extreme speeds, with Caltech’s Harry Atwater leading the charge to understand how ultrathin materials respond to radiation pressure. Atwater and his team have created a “miniature trampoline” lightsail tethered for testing, using nanotechnology to measure the force exerted by laser beams, a critical step toward building stable, high-speed interstellar probes.
