Travel between the stars is not impossible, or even "nearly impossible". It is simply, at this point, very difficult, very dangerous, and very expensive. Much the way travel between Europe and North America was in, say, 1520, 100 years before the Mayflower sailed to America.

THIS YEAR, travel to the stars is impossible. 100 years ago, travel to the MOON was impossible; we did it 40 years ago! Travel to the stars will be impossible to my generation; but then, I'm nearly 60. Travel to the stars for you, or for your children, will almost certainly be "merely" very difficult and expensive. For your great-great-grandchildren, travel to the stars may be routine.

The Earth is small and fragile; there are big rocks flying around the solar system, and eventually one of them is going to hit us. Again. It happened 65 million years ago, it happened 252 million years ago, and it has probably happened many other times that we don't have any records of just now.

If the human race is to endure for more than a few centuries, the word "ship" will inevitably come to be synonymous with STARSHIP.

What is real flood?

Localised flooding is when heavy rain causes a stream to overflow in a dip in the road, making travel over the dip difficult or impossible. Therefore, a real flood is (I suspect) a large area of a river's flood plain to be covered in water making travel impossible over a wide area.

Can space-time travel faster than light?

According to Einstein, no body travel in the speed of light. He gave an relationship between the mass and speed (relative mass) in his theory of relativity. According to that, if a body travels in a speed of light, then the mass of the body must be infinite. Which is practically impossible. space-time travel is just a science fiction. it may become true in future. but it is impossible right now.
