How can light provide momentum to solar sails if its mass is zero?
If photons are massless, how do solar sails provide thrust?
How is it possible that a photon is massless? Physics: Why don’t photons have mass? How can massless particles (photons) have momentum? How can a photon exist if it is massless? How does the earth orbit the sun without losing energy? Why don't photons have mass? Can a radiator be used to propel spaceships? Do massless particles have to travel at the speed of light? How do propulsion systems work in space? Are there solar systems that act like a double pendulum? What we will see if solar powered lasers remove the atmosphere of Uranus? How can a photon not have mass but still have momentum? Does a moving photon have mass? The planets revolve around the sun without losing energy when gravitational force is acting on them .why? Can we theoretically make a compact artificial sun in space travel? How is it possible for sun to have more energy than Lightning? Theoretically, is it possible to create satellites to transmit solar energy from space as a magnetic field back to earth? How are space rockets able to fly? What forms of propulsion offer the most promise for Interstellar spaceflight? How come we cannot see a rocket penetrate the upper atmosphere nor the space shuttle? Hmmm why no answer you so smart nasa Will it be possible to make spaceships that can travel at light speed? How does the propulsion system works in space? Why doesn't the whole world use solar power? Why don't the metals on satellites and rockets boil away when we send them into space since there is no pressure in the vacuum of space? What is the Solar energy? RE Polaris: Is it possible that an out of view planet’s orbit is in a gravitational suspension between Suns due to a multiple pull of gravity effect? Why do massless particles always travel at the speed of light? How does the top of a commercial solar tower not melt when all the mirrors are pointing light at it? How does a rocket fly in space vacuum? How can a photon have no mass when E=mc^2?
