Sure, why not?
It'll just take a long time to get there and send signals back, so we probably won't do it much.

It's true the correct response to lightlag is doing it very often. However, my post was not referring to what we should do, but what we will do.

No, they are too far away to be worth the effort.

There are already initiatives like Breakthrough Starshot planning to do this within the next 100 years, it's quite doable.
