Considering our starship will be smaller than a great many objects that could be in our path I think traveling at greater than light speed would be extremely risky.

Traveling through hyperspace ain't like dusting crops, boy! Without precise calculations we could fly right through a star, or bounce too close to a supernova and that'd end your trip real quick, wouldn't it?
