The wind from the sun

The world's first solar sail, Cosmos 1, will launch on June 21st atop a converted Russian SLBM. If it works, it will pioneer a new method of getting things around the solar system - and maybe even to the stars.

Information on watching Cosmos 1 after launch can be found here.
