What are biotic factors for Proxima Centauri?
Proxima Centauri is a star. It has no life forms.
What does a person need to see Proxima Centauri?
Proxima Centauri is a red dwarf and the third star of the binary system of Alpha Centauri. You need to be 'below' -600 latitude and have have a telescope capapble of resolving a a star with an Absolute Magnitude of 15.5 or better. Which is a very powerful telescope for any but professional astronomers. It can only be seen from a very few places in the US, and then very poorly as it is too near to the horizon even at its highest.
Which is the next nearest star to us after the Sun?
The nearest star to the Sun is Proxima Centauri, which is part of the Alpha Centauri star system. It is located about 4.24 light-years away from Earth.
What star is nearest to the earth after your sun?

What is the nearest star to earth aside from sun?
The nearest star to Earth aside from the Sun is Proxima Centauri, which is part of the Alpha Centauri star system located about 4.24 light years away from us.
Can you see proxima centauri?
Not without a telescope. Proxima Centauri is a dim star.
What is the scientific notation of Proxima Centauri?
Proxima Centauri is a star and there is no scientific notation for a star. There will be scientific notations for the values of its distance, its size, its age, luminosity, magnitude and so on but the question is not about any of them!
How bright is proxima centauri?
Proxima Centauri is about 0.005% as bright as the sun. In other words the sun is about 20,000 times brighter than Proxima Centauri.
What are biotic factors for Proxima Centauri?

How far is proxima centauri from your galaxy?
As the closest star to our sun, Proxima Centauri is in our galaxy.
Is Proxima Centauri a yellow star?
No, Proxima Centauri is not a yellow star. It is a red dwarf star, which means it has a cooler temperature and emits most of its light in the red and infrared spectrum.
. A star that has the same apparent magnitude as Alpha Centauri could?
be larger than Alpha Centauri and farther away from Earth
Which star is the closest distance to the Sun?
Proxima Centauri is the closest star to our sun at 4.24 light years away. It is a red dwarf about one-seventh the diameter of our sun. From there, the Sun is a bright 0.4 magnitude star in the constellation Cassiopeia. However, the sun is not the closest star to Proxima Centauri. The closest stars from there are Alpha Centauri A and B.
What is magnitude of proxima star?
Alpha Centauri ... the brightest star in the constellation "Centaurus" ... has a visual magnitude of 0.00. Alpha Centauri is a triple star ... a binary yellow dwarf (G2V) circled by an orange dwarf (K1V), with a much smaller red dwarf (M5.5Ve) orbiting the pair at a greater distance. The stars are not visually resolvable, and the visual magnitude of 0.00 includes the light from all three components. The faintest of Alpha Centauri's three stars, Proxima, is the star closest to the sun, at about 4.2 light-years. Proxima's apparent magnitude is about 11 (very much too faint to see with the naked eye, even if A and B weren't almost right on top of it from our viewpoint), and its absolute magnitude is an even more dismal 15.5.
