Get hype this means that current x AU per year figures for e-sail might be under actual performance, I'm so glad NASA is working on both e-sail and solar sail (Solar Cruiser) tech

I see it as hedging our bets in case the plasma/magsail concept turns out to not work as predicted, though I wish NASA would study that more too

Propulsion breakthrough soon lads, I can feel it.
