Alpha Lupi is 550 ly from Earth.
It is a giant hot blue star of type B1.5. It has also been classified as a Beta Cepheid Variable.
This star is about 65 light years from Earth.
In the film its set in the star system Alpha Centauri, so about 4.37 light years away.
Alpha Centuri is roughly 4.1626325x1018 centimeters from the Sun. The distance from the Earth varies depending on where we are in our orbit..
Alpha Centauri is 4.365 light-years from the Sun. One light-year is 9.46*1012 kilometers. So: 4.365*9.46*1012= 4.13*1013 kilometers
Alpha Centauri is the nearest star system to our Solar System and the third brightest star. It is located 4.367 light years away from Earth.

Approxiamtely 4.3 light years away
Roughly 4.3 light years.
Which star do you mean? Sol, commonly called the Sun is 93 million miles away from earth. The next nearest, Proxima Centauri in the Alpha Centuri system is 4.2 light years away.
The star system Rigil Kentaurus, also known as Alpha Centauri, is located about 4.37 light-years away from Earth, making it the closest star system to our solar system.
Alpha Centauri AB is a binary star system. It is 4.37 light years away from our Sun. Both Alpha Centauri A and Alpha Centauri B are in close orbit around each other, so the same distance is valid for both.
The closest star we know of other than the Sun is Proxima (Alpha Centauri C) at about 4.2 light years. The next closest star after that is a tie, since it's a binary pair: Alpha Centauri A and Alpha Centauri B, both of which are about 4.4 light years away.
