    Well yeah. Space is big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist’s, but that’s just peanuts to space.

    Until we figure out faster than light travel, it’ll be a bit of a trip just getting to the next system over

      Yeah, and if we ever do figure out FTL travel, we then have to find out how to stay in the same “time” afterwards, since you travel forward in time at light speed.
