So.
I was reading an article the other day and it really made me wonder.
Would i ever live to see space travelling?
To sum up the article, it is saying that with our current physics theory, it is technically impossible to traverse to other stars. Our current physics theory, the theory of relativity is written by Einstein in the early 1900s (1907 - 1915ish), which proved to be ... like prophet-telling. It took us a century to just merely prove his theories correct.

In other words, our physics theory haven't improved at all. Maybe abit, but a tiny bit compared to what he accomplished in his lifetime compared to us in a century.
Which means, if we DO want to travel to other systems, we have to have someone to produce an applicable theory which indicates that we CAN travel faster than the speed of light. But if that does happen, scientists will take another century or two proving that theory because if that is true, then all the things that we learned will become obsolete.
OR
Somehow finding a floating alien or ancient technology which produces random energies of its own.
or
Teleportation. Crossing Dimensions.
Whatever path they choose to research, we won't live to see it.
The more i look at the Hubble Ultra Deep Field the more i think about why do we even wage war on each other. Whats the point really? Other than to destroy our own planet. Everything like racism and cultural diversity will soon no longer exist (estimation of 1000 years). By the year 3000, i doubt we will even have people with different skin colours. Races are nothing more than a joke. Compared to the billions of stars in the sky, we, Humans are minuscule. Even as a whole race - Humanity.
Another good point with the speed of light; by looking up in the sky, we are actually looking at the past, since the stars in the sky are ___ light years away. Anything that happens in the sky, an explosion for example, is something that happened lightyears ago. Because of this, we could create a uber woober telescope that could see coolber far. That could perhaps, even see what happened during the Big Bang.
No wait that wouldn't work... would it? Cos the Big Bang exploded from a single point... and it continues to expand infinitely... and we are just a point created from its expansion... So therefore to see what before... No wait that wouldn't work.
Oh wait it still can, but just be soooo far away from us. Because the stuff that happens in the sky are BOOMED, and that BOOM takes ____lightyears to reach us. In order for us to be able to see the forming of the Big Bang, it means that; When the universe was created, space expanded, and that expansion must be expanding faster than the speed of light could travel AND allow 4 billion years or so for the Earth to form AND a few thoussand years for civilisation to ... civilise. THEN boom, the Big Bang we see. But that would mean the speed of light is incredibly slow compared to the expansion of space. Which means... space will be megaultraripling its size each second....
Fuck.
