Solar Sail lost, then found, hope it works!
 

A few hours ago I was bummed because it seemed like the private solar sail experiment by the Planetary Society was lost in space.

But, they seem to have started getting signals from it.

I sure hope they figure out how to fix the problem and launch the sail.

Supposedly we'll be able to see it in the night sky.

I hope it works, that solar sail technology of propulsion could be a major breakthrough in space travel.
