Proxima Centauri is a red dwarf, a common type of star but very dim despite its closeness, and less hot than the Sun at its surface.
It is only 4.24 light-years away but only a magnitude 11 star, so a hundred times dimmer than the faintest that can be seen by eye.
It is 0.237 light years from Alpha Centauri from where it would be seen as a 5.5 magnitude star, so only just visible.
