You have to relate this to CS:S by mentioning that it's Gabe Newell's home planet.

Looks like a large land mass with water around it. (Earth's early days when the continents were all together to form pangaea)
 
hmm We Would Never get There,Cause Prolly To Far Away And Were Not advanced Enough to make it that far or we would have already be going there
 
yeah.. the problem with that is its 3600 trillion miles away

but i love reading articles about space. very interesting topic to me

As a matter of fact, 600 LY is a huge distance, but truth to be told it is possible to get there, the only concern is, the resources we'd need to do so would recquire mankind to deploy human life forms of all ages in order to live and reproduce inside the spacecraft, or so I remember from my astronomy classes back in college.

In a not so distant future, when our planet is almost depleted, our race will attempt it, believe me.

.... Or another alien race will come here first, and we'll see what happens next.

It would take 600 years to reach the planet if you were traveling at the speed of light (cant do it, more or less). This means that it would take an X amount of time where X >600 years to reach this planet. Gathering and maintaining the amount of resources required to reach the planet would be of astronomical proportions in itself. I do however see where you are coming from, it just isn't practical in this day and age.

You would have to find other plants you could get resources from on the way. Or do one of those "Freezing" things and put the ship on auto pilot haha
 
No, to get there we must go to LUDICROUS SPEED!
