neat, I don't know anything about what you just said but I'll watch it

tl;dw

Is it a solar sail that we throw photons at rather than waiting for the shitty sun and its shitty inverse square law to push shit along slower than a motherfucker?

>>8294926
only at first

also, bring lasers

Will it be a colored laser? I'd love to see a blue or green ray crossing the skies.

>>8295091
infrared

>>8295091
Possibly. But laser itself will probably be in space. Meaning you won't see the beam. You might be able to see the dot though if you were in just the right place with a telescope.

>>8295141
Will they launch the laser first and then the probe? Or everything at once and then separate into two different modules before aiming and firing the laser??

>>8295169
it's a big fucking laser. You'd build it in space. You'd use it to launch a lot of probes and not just for launching probes

>>8295091
it'd be cool, but whatever you see is just wasted energy

but it'd eb really neat to see a constant line coming off the planet's surface, slowly pushing the planet and the ship apart, like a "get your ass out of here" beam in the sky
