sorry, could have sworn i saw a comment in the thread about using the sail itself to capture reaction mass. That made me think to the ram. The ultimate use of these, of course, would be to add drag to a couple of comets (say one nickle-iron and the other H2O), and drop them into near-lunar orbit for processing (I would have said near-earth, but the idea of that would freak some people out), you could even use a sail as the mirror for the solar kiln to melt the ore.
For those about to ask - the reason you want to use this meathod to get water to your workers is the insane amout of money it costs to boost the stuff from our gravity well. One litre = one kilo, cost vary from USA, Athena 2 (2065kg to LEO): $11622 per kg to Russia, Shtil (430kg to LEO): $465 per kg, but I wouldn't trust to low-ball offer.
