I'm not sure it's possible within the timeframe humanity has to work with even assuming society doesn't destroy itself within the next few decades

like the most likely we'll get is *maybe* freeze people and *maybe* wake them up on the other end, but it'd be a one-way trip and even then we don't currently have the capability to make a ship large enough to do anything meaningful on the other end.

Even taking the interstellar distances out of the picture, say we wanted to establish operations on mars or something, *we can't get people or supplies there in enough capacity fast enough to matter*

and any advancement in that kind of tech is decades away at best because it's categorically not profitable right now
