Trivia
Could we get there?
- Verdict. Hopelessly far for any craft humanity can build today.

- At 10% light speed. ≈ 1546 years in a starship at a tenth of light speed.
- Distance. 155 light-years from Earth.
Look-back time
- Look-back time. The light you'd see left around the year 1871.
Saying hello
