This is a short story by A.C.Clarke , i've seen it in a number of his 
"collections" .

   Actually, I think that "Sunjammer" was the title that Clarke >wanted<
to use for his story about a solar-sail race to the moon's orbit;
however, the title had already been used by Winston P. Sanders
(Saunders?) for a story in Analog, around about 1962
(it's the cover story for one of the "bedsheet-sized" issues
from that time). 
   The operative phrase here is "I think".  If I'm wrong, then
mail me (not the newsgroup!!!), and I'll post a correcting
message.
