That is assuming that the speed of light truly is the end-all-be-all. It is quite possible there are other ways of travel that we’ve yet to discover. I have no idea what they’d be but humans have really only been doing this space / astronomy thing for a few hundred years at most.
We have barely scratched the surface of what is truly going on out there. It would be incredibly “human centric” to think our current understanding of the universe is “it”, in my opinion.

I guess that's why arthur c clarke said sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. I just think that kind of magic would be visible to us. Or maybe it is, but we just can't tell.
