    Travel Time from Sun to Proxima Centauri: A Light-Year Calculation
    The Sun's nearest star is Proxima Centauri, which is about 4.24 light-years away.

    Here's how to calculate the travel time:

    * Light-year: A light-year is the distance light travels in one year.

    * Speed of light: Light travels at approximately 299,792,458 meters per second.

    Therefore, it would take light 4.24 years to travel from the Sun to Proxima Centauri.
