NASA is building a starship! Well, sort of. The Nautilus-x, a concept deep-space vehicle, could be constructed and ready to sail by 2020. This ship could take man to Mars easily, and possibly beyond to the Jovian and Saturnian moons. Lessons learned from this ship will pave the way for making interplanetary travel common, and even kick start interstellar travel.
