There are no stars that I am aware of named "SMN". The nearest star to Earth is Proxima Centauri, and the next-closest stars are the binary pair Alpha Centauri and Beta Centauri.
Proxima Centauri is a very dim red-dwarf companion of the bright star Alpha Centauri in the southern Centaurus constellation. Proxima is about 4.2 light years from Earth, while Alpha Centauri is 4.5 LY away. Even though Proxima Centauri is the closest star to our own, it is almost invisible to the naked eye.
No. The nearest star to Earth is the sun.
Proxima Centauri
proxima centauri
Proxima Centauri (note spelling) and Alpha Centauri are stars in a trinary some 4.3 light years from earth (at the present time).
To my understanding, the Alpha Centauri system contains two binary stars (Alpha Centauri A and Alpha Centauri B) and a third star Alpha Centauri C or Proxima Centauri (which is the closest star to our sun)
proxima centauri.
PROXIMA CENTAURI Alpha Centauri is the brightest star system in the constellation of Centaurusis and is also the outermost "pointer" to the Southern Cross.
The nearest star to the Earth is Proxima Centauri which belongs to the Alpha Centauri triple-star system and is 4.24 light-years closer. In this area, only nine stars are bright enough to see with the naked eye from Earth.
