Breakthrough Starshot is an initiative launched in 2016 aimed at developing a new method for interstellar travel. The primary goal of the project is to send small, lightweight spacecraft called "StarChips" to the Alpha Centauri star system, which is about 4.37 light-years away from Earth. The program was founded by a group of prominent scientists and entrepreneurs, including physicist Stephen Hawking, entrepreneur Yuri Milner, and cosmologist Neil deGrasse Tyson, among others.
