The fastest spacecraft is the Voyager-1 goes in the speed of 17.05 km/s . Its speed changes whenever it goes near planets .

My calculations are very accurate and based on that speed and neglecting the small changes.

It's also dodgy in that it fails to account for where the star will be when the spacecraft arrives. Stars move and shit.

I'm neglecting all that in my calculation. Things can get really complicated, if we take in account all the small variables and changes .
