But no brakes. How do you stop a solar powered sailcraft travelling at a significant fraction of the speed of light? Would you need an equal distance to stop as you need to accellerate?


No absolute eed to slow down. The probe can return large amounts of data just zipping by at near speed of light.

But, but, how are we supposed to set up our first space colony there?

Mars sounds infinitely more doable for the foreseeable future.
