Abstract :
Solar sailing is an unique form of spacecraft propulsion that uses the free and limitless supply of photons from the Sun. The investigation of near-the-Sun space properties is of the great scientific interest. It can be realized by the help of solar sailing. We present the numerical simulation of several closed modelled trajectories of a spacecraft with a controlled solar sail to reach heliopolar regions, to fly over the Sun north and south poles and to return to the Earth orbit.
