How long would it take humans to travel a light-year?

This duration is a bit of a problem, as it makes space exploration a painstakingly slow process. Even if we hopped aboard the space shuttle discovery, which can travel 5 miles a second, it would take us about 37,200 years to go one light-year.

Do frozen fish come back to life?

Footage has emerged of a frozen fish being ‘brought back to life’ after being defrosted in warm water. Fish can survive this kind of freezing cold because they contain ‘antifreeze’ proteins in their blood.

How long would it take to travel 13 billion light years?
