We discuss the vast distances between stars and the technological hurdles that must be overcome to make such journeys possible. The episode covers theoretical concepts such as warp drives, which could potentially allow faster-than-light travel, and generation ships, which would sustain human life over multi-generational journeys. We also examine current scientific advancements and proposals, including the Breakthrough Starshot initiative aimed at sending small probes to nearby star systems. This episode delves into the future possibilities of humanity becoming an interstellar species.
