Space travel

Just now I watched a video on YouTube about space travel. 

It made the point that distances are huge and even if we reach speeds approaching that of light, it would take so long that a human space traveller, even with time dilation for the traveller, would arrive back on Earth millions of years in the future.  

Even unmanned probes do not solve this problem. Inter-stellar travel really poses all sorts of problems. Essentially any such space travellers have a one way ticket.




Sunspots - Thursday January 1st

 Happy New Year everyone. May the year bring you and those you love health and happiness.
