This will kill you
>ywn travel to another planet
We have the technology for this just about, If Musk succeeds you could be on Mars by 2040.
>ywn see our sun from another system
It would just be a dot. Beside they could turn around Pioneer or Voyager's cameras for basically the same thing.
>ywn see our galaxy's supermassive black hole in action
>ywn see a binary system's sunrises
Yeah I've always wanted to see these things
Look on the bright side, The stuff you see of the Solar System now scientists 50 years ago could have only dreamt of. In fact I remember as a kid growing up with 1984 encyclopaedias all the pictures for planets ended past Saturn.

Our best chance for exploring the stars in this lifetime is a higher class civilization whisking us away to them.

We are too old to explore the earth. and too young to explore the stars. truly the worst time to be a human

What do you even mean by this? Pulsars have been observed. They are rotating magnetized neutron stars that emit electromagnetic radiation

Congratulations on confusing "pulsar" with "singularity" and subsequent attempts at saving face. Have a biscuit.
