If my logical thinking serves me well, there's no chance to survive interstellar travel. Look at thar thing! Its full of craters. It's been bombarded by tiny super fast collisions. How can anything survived that in space and keep people alive too?
It has been out there for ~~billions of~~ ~150 million years to get that way.
How many years did you think it would take us to get to a habitable planet?
The ship would be a living ship for a long long time. The space station already has been hit by micro meteors. Imagine what would happen to a larger ship away from the protection of the earth.
