You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. I'm sorry to be so blunt, but quite seriously this is so many orders of magnitude removed from anything approaching reality that I stand frankly amazed.

The pinnacle of man-made long distance travel has now, after 3½ decades, reached the edge of our solar system. Having jumped that puddle, the next closest star is an ocean away. The edge of our galaxy, mere fantasy.
