It has been theorized that a self-replicating starship utilizing relatively
conventional theoretical methods of interstellar travel (i.e., no exotic
faster-than-light propulsion such as "warp drive", and speeds limited to an
"average cruising speed" of 0.1*c*.) could spread throughout a galaxy the
size of the Milky Way in as little as half a million years.
