Spending your entire life in space. If there's another planet suitable for humans, it will be quite a long journey to get there. Even traveling at one percent of the speed of light, it would still take 10,000 years to go only 100 light years.

This means that the people who get on an interstellar spaceship will not be the ones who arrive.
