Interestingly, the spacecraft would use an innovative propulsion method: lightsails. These types of reflective sails use the pressure from lasers or starlight to propel spacecraft. These ultrathin ...

And it has been confirmed that the lander’s propulsion module will be built, tested and assembled in Thales’ Space Manufacturing and Assembly facility in Belfast ahead of a planned launch in 2030.

The company is dedicated to driving R&D efforts in space technology, particularly in the areas of rocket propulsion and launch ... stage-four module, the PSLV Orbital Experimental Module (POEM).

The spacecraft, though, suffered thruster failures and helium leaks on its propulsion module, which led to months of debate as to whether or not to fly it home with the astronauts on board.
