wow

 

[flowerbug]

wow

getting too and fro is the challenge. or even if we make all trips only one way.

 

[Britesea]

Yup, helluva commute

 

[CrealCritter]

Are we there yet?

 

[JanetMarie]

No way to commute. The nearest star besides our sun is Proxima Centauri, which is almost 25 trillion light years away. Currently the fastest space vehicle we have travels at 500,000 MPH, and would take 80,000 years to get there.

If we could travel at the speed of light (186.000 Miles Per Second) it would take 4.25 years to get there. A new technology that uses warp drive breaks the speed of light, however doubtful our bodies would be able to withstand the g-force.

Maybe in the future robots could be sent. I hope the Space Force continues. Has the Space Force even done anything yet?

Proxima Centauri is a small, low-mass star located 4.2465 light-years (1.3020 pc) away from the Sun in the southern constellation of Centaurus.Its Latin name means the "nearest [star] of Centaurus". This object was discovered in 1915 by Robert Innes and is the nearest-known star to the Sun. With a quiescent apparent magnitude 11.13, it is too faint to be seen with the unaided eye.

Space Force done anything yet? Good question, IDK...

I looked it up. Space Force is just a division of the military. Protecting our satellites is a mission, boring.
