Agreed.
Since nothing can travel faster than the speed of light and the diamond is fifty light years away, it will require colossal amounts of time to develop technology that can travel near the speed of light for fifty straight years.
Anyway, back to the topic, the diamond sounds amazing (ten billion trillion trillion carats?), but it isn't all that practical to go after such a development. Although, it is interesting that scientists can measure the interstellar diamond based on its pulsating behavior.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
