    Can we swap the US Military and NASA budgets for just one year please?

    Just one year

    It would be AMAZING

    Or even what we fund Israel's 2/3 of all their weapons are bought by US

    We'd have 10% speed of light probes going outside of solar system already

    Well at least Nancy Grace Roman L2 Telescope is launching, hope it goes perfectly

      Can we really accelerate any probe to faster than 1% c? Or 2% c?

        Yes, with lasers or nuclear energy
