Everything about Fermi Explorer

Proposed interstellar mission

The Fermi Explorer Mission a US non-profit organization that plans to launch the first spacecraft to another star. The project aims to launch a spacecraft, called Fermi Explorer, before the end of 2029 and to send the spacecraft at least 99% of the distance to Alpha Centauri, the nearest star system to the Sun. The proposed journey will take approximately 77,000 years, which is the optimum arrival time for least fuel and cost. Wikipedia →
