TRAVELING TO THE NEXT STAR

Our planet Earth is in the solar system which gets light from the Sun which is a star and the nearest star in our galaxy,the only nearest and the next stop for now is for some scientist is to go to the next star the Alpha Centauri. A governmnet agency in US the Darpa a Defense Advanced Research Projest Agency which want to find and award some organization or company that will able to plan to travel to Alpha Centauri which they can give $500,000 as the first step in studying on how o go to Alpha Centauri.

Scientist find people that can design a spacecraft that can fly to Alpha Centauri,which 4.4 light years from our planet which equivalent to less than 100 years.That could be a fastest spacecraft to be invented to reach the Alpha Centauri in just less than 50 or 20 years to travel than spending almost 100 years.

The NASA Voyager 1 which the fastest spacecraft today which can fly 61,000 kilometers per hour,which if it will travel to Alpha Centauri it will be take 70,000 years to reach it.If there will somebody take this mission maybe it will never comeback.Imagine the years to travel the Alphe Centauri which if you look at the sky at night you think those stars is just so near but hundreds of years you will be spend to go there.If there will someone planning to go to Alpha Centauri it will impossible and only miracle will take them there.
