Re: Hmmm. Good question

People won't go, I'm sure of that. We will have to change biologically (profoundly) to make that possible. We won't even be the same species when it happens. But a probe might get there sooner. Problem is the costs exceed the benefits, and there is so much remote reconnaissance that we have to do before making the attempt, such as finding a star system with the most interesting planets, and so forth.
