Proxima Centuri

Proxima Centauri is a red dward star, and is our closest star. It is 4.2 light years away, and is visually in the sky at the position of Alpha Centauri, and has two known planets. (It is part of a three star system that appears as one star when we look at it with normal eye sight).

The 3D position of Proxima Centuari to our sun can be seen using the Xalyse closest stars analysis tool. See: Proxima Centauri (Wikipedia)
