According to the laws of physics and/or how the universe's expansion works, Homeworld gems wouldn't be able to travel anywhere outside of our local galactic group.

Our local group is held together by gravity, and the universe is always constantly expanding, whether we like it or not. We and/or any intergalactic-traveling would only be able to traverse in our local group, as any other galactic clusters are moving away from each other at speeds more than the speed of light.

Sadly, using this thesis, one day, trillions of years into the future, after the local group combines into a single galaxy (Named Milkdromeda), only Milkdromeda would be able to be seen.

Even with the gems capabilities, the expansion of the universe simple prevents anyone from reaching the nearest galaxy cluster. If you tried, over the course of billions of years, you would watch every galaxy move away from you, until, eventually, the universe is completely black, due to light from other galaxies not being able to reach you.

It's rather depressing.
