Creating orbital construction yards for spaceships is feasible, similar to the International Space Station (ISS) concept. The discussion highlights the potential for launching multiple sections into orbit to build large ships for interstellar travel. While the physics of maintaining velocity in space supports the idea of traveling to other solar systems, the practicality of such journeys raises concerns, particularly regarding the lengthy timeframes involved. The conversation also touches on humanity's long-term survival in relation to the sun's lifecycle, suggesting that current existential threats are not immediate. Overall, the feasibility of orbital construction for spaceships is acknowledged, but the implications of interstellar travel remain complex and speculative.
