2024 is a nice, safe, distant date. Interachangable at any time.

And the US has pushed their manned Mars plans out past 2040, for
equally "safe" reasons.

To think back in the 1970s, when the BIS came up with Project Daedalus,
I actually thought I would live to see a true interstellar mission at least
get built and launched.

A star probe could still happen, if the right people get it together.
