Additional methods include solar and laser thermal propulsion: essentially chemical propulsion systems that use solar or laser light to heat a hydrogen fluid. In order to heat up the fluid, sunlight must be directed towards these metallic, balloon-like inflatable mirrors. These mirrors, in turn, are meticulously pointed through a small window to the engine, where the propellant is located.  2, fiche 1, Anglais, - solar%2Dchemical%20propulsion
