Alpha Centauri
The Sun in itself is a star, but Proxima Centauri is the closest star to our solar system at a distance of about 4.2421 light years.
No. To start off, the sun is a star, not a planet and is far larger than any planet. The sun is larger than the average star, but it is nowhere near being the largest.
Jupiter is called a near or failed star because it is not massive enough to be classified as a star. It would have 80 times more mass to be called a star.
The Sun is nearest star to Earth. Its light takes about 8 min. 20.33 sec. to reach to Earth. Its mine the distance of the Sun is near about 150 million km.
Dynamic encounter is a theory about the historical origin of the planets as a result of a near collision of the sun and another star. Georges Leclerc, Comte de Buffon was the first to propose this theory.
The Sun is by far the nearest star to Jupiter.
A star near the Sun might be brighter or dimmer, it depends on how big it is. Each star has an absolute magnitude and if you find out a star's absolute magnitude, and then subtract 31.4, that would be its visual magnitude at the Sun's distance from us.

the sun! Edit: The traditional name "morning star" is given to planet that's always near the Sun in the sky, so it can often be seen near sunrise. Both Venus and Mercury have been called the morning star.

Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever) came out on May 17th 2010.
A neutron star is so dense, that apart from a direct collision from another neutron star, the chances are slim to impossible.
Regulus is about 77 light years distant from earth.There are no other stars between the sun and earth.The nearest star to earth is about 278,000 timesas far from us as the sun is.Regulus is about 17 times as far from us as that star is.
Closest star is our Sun. Because our orbit around the sun is elliptical, the distance varies but on average it's around 1.496 * 108 km away from the Earth.
