One of my few regrets is I won’t be around to see interstellar travel.
On the bright side, there's no realistic chance that that will ever happen.

And nobody will ever need more than 640k of memory.
Also, humans cannot travel faster than 30mph.
We’ve only been able to fly for 100 years. It’s maybe a little early to write off Alpha Centauri?
I was only joking

when we figured out how to use sharp sticks to murder things and eat them, we were closer to flight technology than we are now to interstellar travel technology.

I believe in little more than 40 years we will discover the warp drive, which is the signal for other civilizations to contact us. With the new alien technology, things will accelerate a lot.

Alastair Reynolds' sci-fi universe does without warp drive or FTL travel. It makes for some interesting storylines.
For that matter, Joe Haldemann's "The Forever War," uses the lack of FTL travel as the basis for his story. It's a great book - read it 3 times, LOL.

I think that suspended animation will be the likelier near term solution and/or generation ships.

Just be careful whom you trust to run it.

I wonder how many genders they will have.
Maybe they bud…
