Technology has allowed human civilization to create space craft that could potentially travel beyond the limits of our solar system, as demonstrated by the Voyager and Voyager 2. However its mans own limits that keep us close to home. An unmanned craft does not have the limitations of a manned craft such as oxygen supply, power for heat, food storage, but the biggest limitation of manned space travel is simply time. Meaning that even if all other issues were addressed, we're limited by how long space travel currently takes. For example even to get from Earth to Mars would take months with current technology, and even 1 AU would take substantially longer.
