Everyone reading this will not be able to visit other stars
it's been estimated that it will take about 1000 years for interstellar travel to be possible and that's just being optimistic

But...but...I know how to do stuff.
@taotapp: most likely i wasn't misunderstood, maybe the guy was just trying to sound like a smartass and that's one of my pet peeves especially when when they did a horrible job at it

[quote=SaneleeBoring]if you don't have the brain capacity to figure out that the term "visiting a star" is equivalent to "visiting a solar system" then this thread isn't for you
i mean do you have some sort of a mild autism to take things like this in a literal sense?[/quote]
Why does being misunderstood frustrate you so much?
[quote=SaneleeBoring]maybe but the fastest object that we have would take 19k years to get there soooo iunno[/quote]
At the same time it would be silly to think that the technology would not be advancing at an experiential rate.

well brian cox said that teleportation of subatomic particles had been achieved, so now we had the foundations we can maybe teleport larger heavier masses of particles like people some day?
going to outer space = exposure to ridiculous amounts of radiation = nty bbz
Remember when someone reputable said technology would have reached its limit by a couple of years ago?
[quote=Jimmy985]I would expect it to take longer.[/quote]
it will, that's just an optimistic estimate because it only factors in light speed travel
Aren't stars really hot? I don't think anyone will be visiting stars.
I would expect it to take longer.
[quote=TheDStar]I would make a smart comment, but I realized I'm thirteen so I'll say this.

I'm fine with being down to earth.
