"Exploring Europa's Potential Life with Solar Sails"

TL;DR Summary
Solar sails, which use sunlight for propulsion, could be used to explore Jupiter's moon Europa and Saturn's moon Enceladus in the search for alien life. These sails could reach the moons in just a few years and potentially sample plumes that may contain biomolecules without destroying them. Solar sail technology could revolutionize space exploration and may even be used for interstellar missions in the future.
