How is the distance measured between earth and the next closest star outside of our solar system?
Nearest * is Proxima Centauri, at a distance of about 4.22 light years.
Proxima is located between 4.22 and 4.35 light years away from Earth.
Despite the brightness of A and B, Proxima is the closest star at
roughly 4.22 ly away.
