contain generalizations and contractions.
Explanation: argumentative essays require a formal, precise tone. The original uses contractions ("couldn’t," "they’re") and vague language ("probably," "a long time"). Revise to remove contractions and make the claim more specific or supported.
Possible revision:
"We cannot travel to all the stars because they are extremely distant. With current technology, reaching even the nearest star, Proxima Centauri, would take tens of thousands of years."
