Proximal centauri
Since the universe goes on forever (at least that's what we know of it), we cannot determine the star that is furthest away. It is impossible. However, the furthest star that we can see from Earth is the star Deneb.
The galaxy MACS0647-JD is the furthest star in the gallery that has been viewed from the earth. It is 3.3 billion light-years from Earth.
10 billion light years was the distance. And we believe it was a quasar.
No, the opposite in fact. Sol is the closest star to Earth.
4.2 light years away
The sun is a star, the closest one to Earth. The next nearest star to Earth is about 265,000 times farther away than the sun is.
The nearest star to Earth is the sun, at a distance of 0.000016 light years from Earth. The next nearest star, Proxima Centauri, is about 4.2 light years away.
There are loads of stars all throughout our universe in millions of different galaxies. The furthest stars away from us in our own galaxy are going to be around 70,000 light years away, on the other side of our galaxy. But other galaxies containing stars will be millions of light years away. The furthest ones will be on the edge of the universe some 14 billion light years away.
Aside from our own Sun the next closest star is Proxima Centauri and is 4.243 light years away.
About 4.3 light years, assuming you refer to the Centauri triple star system. About 150,000 years away by Space Shuttle. :-) if you're looking for a range, from the nearest star to the furthest star, it's about 4.2-525 light years away.
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.
No. The moon is the closest astronomical object to Earth. The closest star to Earth is the sun, which is about 400 times farther away than the moon. The next nearest star is more than 260,000 times farther away than the sun.
