Default Re: How to leave the Solar system.

In the end, there will always be explorers and risk takers. So people will want to go and justify to themselves the risk. Since we're talking about the THS setting where large space habitats are part of the setting we can assume any generation starship will be vast and use multiple redundant systems. Many of the systems will be biological in nature so that new parts can be grown in deep space.

These ships would likely be the safest vehicles ever built by humanity. No one would risk interstellar space in less
