Exiting news, top French scientist Etienne Klein has just posted an image from the James Webb space telescope of Proxima Centauri , the nearest star to our sun. If you wanted to travel to this star I suggest you take some lunch along, my own preference is for pizza. Proxima is 4.2 light years away. " A new world is revealed every day" Klein said.
We have many images of Proxima Centauri. Voyager 1 & 2 were launched in the direction of that star system but will take 70,000 years to reach there at their current speed which will not change with no further propulsion available.
