I just want to be clear that this is all heavily theorized. The density of interstellar space has an assumed ablative rate based on speed of travel, but it wouldn't take much to exceed that. We are at least a few trial runs away from knowing, and that alone makes the prospect of interstellar travel far into the future. (again, repeating my main point)
