THE QUESTION

WHY WE CHOSE THE QUESTION

• We chose this because it is something in general that interests us and Is something that would be good to find out.

WHY IT WONT BE POSSIBLE

• The closest galaxy to ours is the Andromeda, it is 2.5 million light years away. I will go on to light years later on.
• A human on average lives to the age of 82, so they would not be able to live out the journey.

LIGHT YEARS

• In one year light travels about 6 trillion miles. This is called a light year. It took the Appollo astronauts 4 days to reach the moon. This is equal to 1 light second.
• The closest star to our sun, Proxima Centauri is 4.24 light years away from our sun.
• The Milky Way across is100,000 light years.
