SPThis is how the sunrise look like on a planet near Alpha Centuri Star System.
Proxima Centauri is part of a multiple star system that includes Alpha Centauri A and B. Proxima Centauri is the closest star to our sun, and is part of the Alpha Centauri system.
Proxima Centauri is a red dwarf star. It's too faint to be seen with the naked eye, except during massive solar flares.
Alpha Centauri A and B are a binary star system, separated by only 23 times the distance between the Earth and the sun.
Proxima Centauri is believed to be gravitationally bound to Alpha Centauri A and B.
Proxima Centauri takes 550,000 years to orbit Alpha Centauri A and B.
Proxima Centauri has been the closest star to the sun for about 32,000 years and will be so for about another 25,000 years.
