>In 2072 the Hacker jettisons Beta Grove off of Citadel Station, Beta Grove ends up crashing on Tau Ceti V in 2102, 30 years later
>Tommy & Rebecca's plan involves taking an escape pod from the Von Braun and going into cryosleep for 30 years to get back to Earth
>The Von Braun is notable in that it is capable of faster than light interstellar travel, and it's made clear that the Rickenbacker literally has to piggyback on the Von Braun to achieve that itself.
>Somehow escape pods and a garden grove from a space station can travel 12 light years in 30 years, but the Rickenbacker can't.
