You *might* find some remnants
that are ten or a 100 million years old.

In interstellar terms 10 or 100 million years is nothing.

Not really. 100 million years is the total lifetime of a star only a
dozen or so times the mass of the Sun. For the most massive stars (a
hundred or so times the Sun's mass), total lifetime is only about ten
million years.




I suppose I should have said in SETI it is considered 10 or 100 million
years to being little.
