🚨: Engineers just proposed a 36 mile long spacecraft called 'Chrysalis' that could carry 2400 people to Alpha Centauri, just 4 light-years away from us, on one way trip. The journey will take 400 years! The passengers who board it will never see Earth again. Neither will their children. Or their grandchildren.

@forallcurious And what would their posterity even do once they reached their destination? They’d be like a dog chasing a car, not knowing what to do with it if it could catch it.
