A graphical summary of the Starshot concept to send a laser-sail probe to the star Proxima Centauri.
The wild "Starshot" project aimed to design a probe that could reach Proxima Centauri in about 20 years.
Although project has gone dormant, it has yielded a lot of new ideas (many not widely shared, alas) about how to build a viable interstellar probe. 🧪🔭

Several pillars of dust in outer space stretch across the image with impressive detail. There are stars both around and within the pillars. It's the famous Pillars of Creation image, but with even more detail.
The Pillars of Creation from a whole new perspective.
You've likely seen Hubble's famous "Pillars of Creation" image before, but here's an alternative look at it by the James Webb Space Telescope. (1/3)

Take Trump’s name off this and you’d think it was written by Churchill or Lincoln.
If they were heartless, soulless lunatics.
