Growing up in Houston, I have followed our space program off and on. I
|
|
am also a big reader of Sci-Fi. So, when I heard about the [Solar Sail
|
|
Kickstarter
|
|
Project](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/theplanetarysociety/lightsail-a-revolutionary-solar-sailing-spacecraft/description)
|
|
from [The Planetary Society](https://www.planetary.org/), I jumped on
|
|
board. And, while they have raised almost 4 times their goal, I think
|
|
that this is a project which will have more of an impact on humanity
|
|
than some of the other projects.
|
|
|
|
So, join me in backing them!
