Our technology is not yet good enough to build spacecraft capable of going fast enough. The stars are a LONG way away. The furthest any man-made spacecraft has been are the two Voyager probes, both of which are only just now approaching the boundaries of our solar system. It would take tens of thousands of years before they could reach even the nearest star - and they aren't going that way.
