Abstract

To discovery alternative sources of energy besides fossil fuels becomes necessary looking for the space. In the space, there is an abundant energy resource: The solar radiation. Solar Sails have long been envisaged as an enabling technology because is a promising low-cost option for space exploration and promissory for space mirror illumination. Actually, we have many projects and research about Solar Sails for space propulsion. However, the idea for space mirror illumination has been forgotten. In this paper, the idea for space mirror resurge with old works about, and demonstrate that is a sustainable energy to research and do.
