The closest star to our solar system is more than four light years away. It would literally take us 1000 human lifetimes to get there, and that's just the closest one.

I don't see the issue🤔 1 year for AI to invent and build light speed capable space craft, and 4 years to get to Proxima Centauri. The math is mathing🤣

Pressing? Maybe. Urgent? Not so much.
