Question

Can we reach the nearest star? How far is it from earth?

Answer 1

Hey mate here you go...

Nearest star is sun.

It is eight light minutes away from earth.

Alpha centauri is the next nearest star.

Hope it helps you

Answer 2

No one knows yet, but Alpha Centauri is an obvious target. It's the nearest star system to our sun at 4.3 light-years away. That's about 25 trillion miles (40 trillion km) away from Earth – nearly 300,000 times the distance from the Earth to the sun.

DISTANCE

81,000 years

In short, at a maximum velocity of 56,000 km/h, Deep Space 1 would take over 81,000 years to traverse the 4.24 light years between Earth and alpha Centauri.
