Same here, but I doubt we'll ever be able to do that without some serious genetic enhacements to the point where we might not be recognizable as humans, or an even better solution, transferring our minds to machines, and then being able to live thousands of years or more and make it more possible for us to travel there.

But it seems a lot more likely that we'll just send some strong AI robots to send us back the data until then.

EDIT: I suggest checking out Space Engine. It seems to cover more than one galaxy and being able to change the viewing/moving speed feels like being in a Star Trek starship. Going through space like that feels a bit unsettling:
