The closest star to earth is the sun. The next closest is a red dwarf star called Proxima Centauri, much further away. The sun is around 8 minutes away at the speed of light, while Proxima Centauri is around 4.2 years away at the speed of light (light years).
Because no other unit of distance is large enough. The closest star system to us is 4.2 light years away, which is about 25,000,000,000,000 miles.
The closest visible star outside the solar system is Alpha Centauri, which is actually a system of three stars: Alpha Centauri A, Alpha Centauri B, and Proxima Centauri. Proxima Centauri is the closest individual star to us at a distance of about 4.24 light years.
4.37 years. the star is Alpha Centauri ---- That's wrong. The closest star is the sun and it takes 8.3 minutes for light to reach us. when phrased nearest star it can be a trick question.. Alpha Centauri is the nearest star besides the Sun.
Sirius is a star, not a planet, and it is not the closest star to Earth or anywhere near being the closest (technically the closest star to Earth is the sun, and the next closest is Proxima Centauri).
The closest star is the Sun - about 8 light-minutes away. The closest star after that is at a distance of 4.3 light-years; the farthest observable galaxies (galaxies are made up of stars) are at a distance of over 40 billion light-years.The closest star is the Sun - about 8 light-minutes away.

The closest star is the Sun. The distance is a little over 8 light-minutes. That is, it takes light from the Sun that long to reach us.The next-closest star is Proxima Centauri. The distance is about 4.2 light-years.
The closest star is our Sun; the distance is 150 million kilometers. The closest star after that is about 4.3 light-years away. Each light-year is about 9.5 trillion (9.5 million million) kilometers.
It depends on the distance of the star to Earth. The distance to the star in light years is the number of years the light took to get here. Most of the stars we see at night are within a few hundred light years of Earth. The closest star other than the sun is about 4.2 light years away.
The nearest star to the Sun is Proxima Centauri, which is part of the Alpha Centauri star system located about 4.24 light-years away from the Sun.

Proxima Centauri, apparently part of the Toliman (Alpha Centauri) system, at a distance of about 4.2 light-years.
The most common type of star near the Sun is a red dwarf star. These stars are smaller and cooler than the Sun, making up about 70% of the stars in our galaxy. They have a long lifespan and are known to be very common in the Milky Way.
The closest star is at a distance of about 4.24 light-years; as far as I know, there is nothing special at a distance of 2.7 light-years. Well, it might be the approximate distance where the gravity of other stars starts to dominate over the gravity of our Sun.
The nearest star to our sun, Proxima Centauri - is about five light years away.
Proxima Centauri is the closest star at about 4.24 light years; the next closest star is Alpha Centauri-A which is about 4.37 light years away.
