Need I remind you that the Enterprise did hit Warp 15 once?!
Yeah, and you know what happened
That's what happens when ya mess around with warp drives! 
So.... Koman.... just pops in, makes one comment, and disappears. What's with these UK guys anyway?

The only things there that (A) allow UFO nuts a glimmer of hope, and (B) permit science fiction credible enough to fall within the limits of suspension of disbelief is that (C) nothing that we know of is self-limiting, and (D) the notion of wormholes, no matter how far out the concept.

Well, OK PI. Good points. OTOH... there's cancellation of the Higg's field...............
Barto, or the rest of us too.......(see above conversation for example of random boredom BS)
OTOH... there's cancellation of the Higg's field...............
...which in turn led to the cancellation of Star Trek.
Actually, lest I give the impression I have any idea of what you're talking about, I passed out shortly after reading this sentence, had to be revived with oxygen:
In particle physics, the Higgs mechanism is the process in which gauge bosons in a gauge theory can acquire non-vanishing masses through absorption of Nambu-Goldstone bosons arising in spontaneous symmetry breaking.
PI, as long as I don't give the impression that I know what I am talking about..... we're gold.

Nah, a mere four light years. Even if we can only ever get to 0.5C we'll be there in 8 years. Of course, there's the fact that there are probably no Earthlike planets orbiting Alpha Centauri despite theories suggesting it's more likely there, so really it'll just be a sightseeing tour. But still, it's nice to get out once in a while.
Also, given the number of stars and number of galaxies and theorized number of planets orbiting their stars in the Goldilocks zone, the odds that there isn't life out there as next to nothing as makes no odds.
I'll have to admit: as comic strips go, none had simpler, more innocent, more profound wisdom than did Calvin and Hobbes.
