Why does an audience identify strongly with one particular character even when that character is not the central hero? And why do writers, marketers and storytellers sometimes introduce a particular character not only to represent an identity, but also to make the story more relatable, emotionally balanced or socially acceptable?

Travel Time to Proxima Centauri b : How Long to Reach the Nearest Exoplanet?

CRA PERSPECTIVE • INTERSTELLAR SCIENCE Travel Time to Proxima Centauri b How Long to Reach the Nearest Exoplanet? 4.24 LIGHT-YEARS • 40 TRILLION KM • ONE DESTINATION An educational exploration of distance, speed, propulsion and the reality of interstellar travel. The Nearest Exoplanet Is Closer Than You Think — And Farther Than You Can Imagine Proxima Centauri b is the closest known exoplanet to Earth. It orbits a small red dwarf star in the Alpha Centauri system, just 4.24 light-years away. That sounds close in cosmic terms.
