Breakthrough Starshot is working on a spacecraft that could reach Proxima Centauri in just 20 years .
It is powered by solar sails powered by, well, just that light.
The advantage of using a solar sail are the truly immense speeds that are able to be reached when launched.
Solar sails require 0 fuel or onboard propellant.
This reduces the mass of the spacecraft significantly.
E equals MC squared only describes objects with mass that aren't moving much like a box sitting on a table.
The new variable P represents the momentum of the specific object in question.
P = 0 and this entire leg of the triangle has a length of 0 , and there we are left with E equals PC squared.
Since light has no mass, as previously mentioned, this whole equation is based on the Pythagorean theorem a ^2 + b ^2 = C ^2.
