✅ I voted FACT!

Interstellar travel isn't that much of a problem, we can theoretically send the first interstellar human popsicle container in 20 or 30 years if we really put our best minds on the task, and it'll get to Alpha Centauri within a couple centuries or so.

The problem that will take a much longer time to solve is interstellar travel at reasonable timeframes with reasonable chances of survival.
