Best Answer
They are all potential problems but I would say B is the least likely problem. Escaping the gravitational pull of the solar system wouldn’t be a problem at all assuming you had a fuel source that wouldn’t run out. The space shuttle now would quickly run out of fuel before it ever even got close to leaving our solar system. We are going to need to develop some kind of energy source that will not run out.
