[aqpuarnu] Intergalactic travel today

Assuming time is no issue, do we have the technology and knowhow today to get a space probe to, say, the Andromeda galaxy?  It is OK if it takes a billion years or more to get there.

We would need precise locations and velocities of nearby stars to perform a gravity-assisted escape of the Milky Way galaxy.
