Their distance varies considerably but even the closest are unimaginably far away. The closest star to us apart from the sun is Proxima Centauri at 4.2 light years away. while Deneb, one of the farthest visible to the unaided eye, is about 2,600 light years away. Many stars are much farther away, too far to bee seen without a telescope. A light year is the distance that light travels in a year, about 6 trillion miles. To get a better idea of how huge this is, light travels at about 186,300 miles per second. At this speed it would travel around the world in about an eight of a second, and yet it takes years, even centuries, to reach us from the stars we see at night.
