>insanely, unfathomably vast universe filled with more potential worlds than anyone could dream of in a million years
>everything is spaced so far apart that even the fastest speed possible is an incredibly slow crawl to the tune of millions of years just to reach adjacent galaxies and several years to reach neighboring stars
>even getting close to this slow as fuck max speed limit is virtually impossible due to insanely high exponential amounts of energy required
>even IF you could go that fast, then the tiniest speck of space dust would have so much energy in a collision youd get BTFO immediately so better pray you have a literally perfect empty path on your 20 light year journey
why is the universe so fucking gay? I have no clue how ufo truthers or muh fermi paradox tards exist when interstellar travel is so blatantly impossible. I know time dilation makes it a lot easier as far as the travel time goes for the explorers, but I still fail to see how any level of technology could make it feasible or worth it. I dont care how advanced you are theres no point leaving your home planet. its a cosmic, infinite expanse of worlds and possibilities but impossible to actually discover any of it. so fucking lame

I ws watching one of those Brain Cox youtubes clips and he said you could only get upto 10% the speed of light but the energy requirements would be to great. Most likely 1% which would take 100,000 years to cross.
Are you afraid? I don't think Brain is thinking outside the box yet.

There's only andromeda to look forward to. Maybe there's life there if we can't find it here.

I've done carpentry. People have a hard enough time cutting 2x4s to the correct length and nailing them 16" on center. We won't be able to build those.

While I'm not sold on ayylmaos having visited us, it's not really impossible as long as you see it as a very slow crawl. Like sending fully automated ships on centuries-long trips to neighboring stars, programmed to start settling and building shit on hospitable worlds. These could MAYBE also take DNA samples with them to make real living copies of us/ayys. Obviously, this is very hard and error-prone, but you could technically skirt around limitations by just spamming a lot of these ships at every somewhat interesting star for redundancy. And of course, have them also be programmed to do the same and start spamming their own copies of themselves at whatever nearby stars they found. It would take a shitload of time and fail more often than not, but slowly you could "colonize" a galaxy like this over thousands, if not millions of years.

If you're talking about climbing aboard a ship yourself and flying over to another star system though, yeah, never gonna happen.

The universe gets fatter every day, Frog.
We already missed our chance to explore her young, nubile curvature. She's already pushing 199lbs+ on the old scale. We need to hurry up and conquer her before she's an obese whale, like your mom.

the universe hasnt even hit puberty yet. from the big bang to all the stars dying out, we've barely gotten started.

if you can reach close enough speeds to c the time of the trip becomes smaller and smaller with no limit. in theory its possible. everyone you know back home will be dead for millions of years however.

And already 200lbs.
