The Sunjammer aka The Wind From The Sun by Arthur C. Clarke

This is audio of a story which I remember reading in 1964.  I was a Cub Scout then, in 4th grade and the space race was ON.  This was such a cool story and the artwork was neat, the diagonal cover motif was very memorable.

There are those who think that space exploration will result in making humanity a multi-planet species.  I suspect that people will just be wasting time having fun in more space than could ever be filled.  They will take pictures of themselves against the scenery, take pictures of their food.  Some will do pointless and potentially dangerous activities.  It's a continuing novelty quest. :)
