gollark: Probably. They could be really light and small, or only use the sail to very slightly supplement the ion drive occasionally. Or just be very slow.
gollark: Maybe the sail bit could also be switchable in little bits instead of the whole thing at once, for very limited steering and communication.
gollark: Maybe space *bees* use solar sail propulsion, laser propulsion or ion engines depending on circumstance (the sail bit is switchable between reflective and photovoltaic somehow), and space *moths* use the thermal thing.
gollark: I see.
gollark: Ion drives with solar power?
