Why do we need to breed astrophage for Hail Mary project? Why not send another rocket to the Petrova Line, and GATHER the astrophage needed? That could possibly be faster than breeding (which will take 13 months), but I don't think the idea is ever mentioned.

Also, astrophage can only travel 8 light years to another star before dying off. Yet getting Project Hail Mary to Tau Seti will take 12 light years. Why won't all the astrophage die before getting there?

I really should finish my current books but I'm too psyched for the Project Hail Mary movie.
