Show by SLEEPY HISTORY

Alpha Centauri is our closest stellar neighbor—and the distance to it is more horrifying than any sci-fi movie suggests. In this episode, we break down what 4.37 light-years really means: decades of travel for our fastest spacecraft, the crushing loneliness of interstellar space, and the unsettling truth that even the nearest star is unreachable for anyone alive today. Space science, sobering scale, and a reality check on humanity's closest cosmic dream. Press play, turn up the volume, and don't listen alone.
