- 1A Real-Time Journey to the Nearest Star in 4K●The Entire Trip to the Nearest Star in Real Time – No Cuts (4K HDR)
A new 4K HDR production depicts the entire journey from Earth to Proxima Centauri, the closest star to our solar system, in real time with no cuts. Audiences are engaging heavily with the piece, which visualizes the true scale of interstellar distances, since even reaching the nearest star would take thousands of years with current technology.

Alpha Centauri, the nearest star system to Earth at 4.37 light-years away, is back in focus. Proxima b, an Earth-mass planet in the habitable zone, orbits Proxima Centauri, and the James Webb Space Telescope may have detected a giant planet around Alpha Centauri A. Scientists say rocky planets could still be hiding around the system's Sun-like stars.
