I just saw Interstellar. Based on that, I would say one would only need to find a way to send yourself a message from the future giving the precise coordinates of a Voyage that is actually good. For that, you just need to find a wormhole, descend into the gravity well of a black hole (but not too far), then enter a fifth dimensional manifold where you can tap out the message in 'binary' (but not Morse), and hope that yourself-in-the-past has a pen and paper to take dictation before the manifold collapses and you are inevitably cast adrift in the vastness of space.
As a bonus, you will have barely aged, and when you return you will be able to avail yourself of most technically advanced reading technology, the Kindle Endurance, with a battery life of several millennia and a full page refresh only every 1bn pages, with self-illuminated nanopixels capable of generating any visible light frequency and the pixels forming each word vibrate, sounding out the word as your eye saccades it. But you will again want to make sure you are getting a good one the first time by employing the wormhole hack.
