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. But 4.24 light-years is roughly 40 trillion kilometres — a distance so vast that our fastest spacecraft would take thousands of years to cover it. This framework breaks down the journey by speed, from current technology to theoretical propulsion, and asks the central question: “How long would it actually take to get there?” The Four Pillars of Interstellar Travel 📏 DISTANCE 4.24 light-years ≈ ...
