At any given moment, it's one of the three stars making up the alpha Centauri system. The one that can get the closest is alpha Centauri C (aka Proxima), but depending on where it is in its orbit, it's possible for either alpha Centauri A or alpha Centauri B to be slightly closer than Proxima at a soecific point in time.
Alpha Centauri
Its the closest star to us, so it appears brighter.
The Sun is the closest star to Earth. The next closest star is 4.2 light years away. It is a red dwarf called Proxima Centauri.
The closest star to the Earth, other than our own Sun, is the red dwarf star Proxima Centauri. It is about 4.22 light years away from us.The second closest star to the Earth (apart from the Sun) is Barnard's Star, a red dwarf. It is about 5.96 light years (about 35.0 trillion miles or 56.3 trillion kilometers) away.
Because it is closer to the earth than any other star.
No. Venus is a planet, not a star. The closest star to Earth is the sun.
Because the Sun is the closest to the Earth.
The closest star to Earth, other than the Sun, is Proxima Centauri, which is part of the Alpha Centauri star system. It is located approximately 4.24 light-years away from Earth. Proxima Centauri is a red dwarf star and is not visible to the naked eye.
No. Other stars are much larger and much hotter than the sun. The sun only seems larger and hotter than others because it is the closest star to us.
The sun is a star. Its different to us than other stars because it is the closest to our planet.
No, it is not.
The Sun is our closest star, however obviously the other galactic stars are much further from Earth than our Sun.
