How Long Could a Starship Survive Between Galaxies

November 11, 2026 · 1 h 52 min

Show notes

Crossing the void between galaxies is the ultimate journey—and surviving it may be the ultimate impossibility. In this episode, we break down how long a starship could actually last between galaxies: the relentless radiation, the slow decay of every system, the psychological collapse of a crew with no destination in sight, and the unsettling truth that the ship may drift long after everyone aboard is gone. Space science, brutal realism, and a reality check on the loneliest journey imaginable. Press play, turn up the volume, and don't listen alone.
