My inside sources have told me, that we will be returning to the moon, this year. The Lunar Lander will land near the dark side of the moon. During an L.O.S [loss of signal] period of about 45 minutes, the astronauts will drive a Rover into the Dark side and investigate a large,crashed, Alien...
A new spacecraft is being launched in about a year, one designed to travel across the solar system. But instead of using rockets to propel itself, it uses sails. Sails pushed by light.
Starlight carries not only energy but momentum. Comet tails, for example, are the result of light blowing...
at its closest to Earth (about 56? How long does it take a message to travel from Earth to a spacecraft on Mars at its closest to Earth (about 56 million {\rm km})? We use radio waves, which travel at the speed of light, to communicate with robotic spacecraft.
into space and by whom? I know the Russians were the first to do anything with space.

...meteors or asteroids? Spacecraft are moving at high velocities. They don't have a anti-collision system, odds are that sooner or later they would run into objects in space and be destroyed.
...they look like? Clearly the photos from Cassini, Galileo, etc are color enhanced.
Would it be so dim that our eyes would not be able to detect all the contrasts in color? Would it look more or less the same, just darker?
