The hypothetical, probably-not-happening-anytime-soon endeavor of sending humans to other stars, requiring generation ships, suspended animation, or a fundamental rewrite of physics. Long-range spaceflight means committing to a journey that will outlast you, your children, and probably your grandchildren, all so your distant descendants can step onto a world you'll never see.
