LOL!

I do believe that if man ever plans on doing any real intersteller space travel, to actually colonize, or explore other planets in this solar system, other solar systems in this galaxy and beyond, they will be doing it without rocket type spacecraft. They are just to dang slow, even at light speed.

What type of travel that will be, I haven't a clue.

Sub-light speed is plenty fast enough to populate the
universe with humans within the time frame of a single
geological epoch. It's easy and practical, if you don't
try to send humans, or other impractical cargo to start
with.
