Into the fair unknown!

There are many possible discoveries to make on this voyage into space. With so little known, the possibilities are endless! There could be plant life forms on undiscovered planets that contain medicinal properties that could cure diseases thought to be incurable! There could be life in this great unexplored space, people or aliens that have advanced far beyond us here on earth, we could learn so much! Although the risks of mechanical problems, hostile environments that we're unprepared for, and things we can't even think of, are weighing heavily on the minds of everybody, the potential payoff is to great to pass up.
