This shoebox-sized spacecraft will sail in space using solar radiation as wind

As scientists try to figure out how our world came into existence, one probable spot that can have some answers are asteroids floating in the vacuum of space. A Near-Earth Asteroid(NEA) Scout is set to sail in search of answers.

The CubeSat will begin its journey as Artemis-I takes to the skies as part of the first uncrewed launch to the Moon. This will be the first time that a spacecraft uses it as wind to generate thrust.
