Neither of your posts answers (as near as I can tell) the question I asked.

Does this new information make it any more likely that we will have interstellar travel in our lifetimes?

Now how would I know that? ... If I could step out of planar present and into volumetric present (the way Jesus did leaving the rock tomb without rolling the stone away), what would 'interstellar' mean, anyway? You might as well ask if we will have extrastellar travel or nonastellar travel in our lifetime, I couldn't answer either of those to any satisfaction. I'm stuck here just like you. But there is something about you and me which is not stuck in this where/when, and God wants us to grow into that higher level of existence.
