Wow, the sound it makes sounds like it was taken right off the movie 2001 A Space Odyssey.

It might work better if the surface they used were similar to the old air hockey tables with the thousands of holes that prevent friction. Would like to ask them about that. Really proud of their efforts.

Joseph Stokes Its a good stress test. Because if it passes this, then its up to the task in space. Temp and vacuum would be the next hurdle.

Holes would post a hazard. The trust that extend could easily get caught in one and ruin the test, and possibly damage the sail. Air blowing on it could also damage it, as it's a very thin material.

So the structural frame work is using a similar idea to measuring tape?

Dear Planetary Society, I have to 3d model your spacecraft but I do not know how it looks from the inside, do you have a 3d model of your spacecraft that I cloud use for my project?
