RE: Faster Than Light Travel: The Only Way To Meaningfully Explore The Cosmos

in #space7 years ago

I think about the size of the universe pretty much every day. Not just the size but how much is going on. It's truly mind boggling. I also remember reading that at our current speeds, it would take one of our fastest space probes like 80k years to get to Alpha Centauri. So we need to get some gravity or solar sails going and find those wormholes you talk about!

Yeah, it is truly something else to get lost in your own imagination about the universe, its vastness and its beauty. Truly magnificent. I just wish that some day, we develop capabilities to be able to witness it all first hand :)
