Although an exploration mission certainly is not going to happen anytime in
the next few decades or longer, it wouldn't require an unrealistic advance
in propulsion technology to get a small spacecraft that distance in a fairly
reasonable time- say a couple hundred years. You don't need to travel the
speed of light.
