Proxima Centauri is a Red dwarf star in the constellation of the Centaur. At just over 4 Light years away Proxima Centauri is the nearest star to the Solar System. Alpha Centauri is a double star system slightly further away than Proxima Centauri. Astronomers believe that Proxima Centauri is gravitationally bound to these two stars.
