You're right, let's send 1 person into the fuck of space just to say we did it.

I'm not being sarcastic.

Like build one really really big space trabuchet, loaded with a space hotel with all the amenities possible for basically a one way generational ship. Then blast those fuckers towards alpha centari and call it a decade.

Oh, and just for fun, give them one life pod but it only holds 20 people.

But the real kicker? ...they never left the ground And it's all televised.

The launch sequence? Really fast merry go round.

The "artificial gravity"? Lol

The infinite food sources vending machines? Catering.

Sure but even if we had stuck someone on voyager 1, it's only 23 light hours away and has been going almost 50 years.
