Yeah I can imagine it! I'm sure you know a lot more about it than me but I got super excited about laser propulsion and I think with it we would be able to send small probes at an even more significant fraction of the speed of light. The issue becomes the power to then transmit the signal back on such a small little probe. It almost made me think we could send probes and get pictures back within a few decades. The scenario you posted where there would be a situation where Earth had to be left and we were all on these star ships living and trying to find a new home is crazy to think about. It sort of reminds me of Battlestar Galactica! I'm so glad I'm following you now or I probably would have missed this post.
