Alpha Centauri is located 4.37 light years from the Sun, making it the closest star system to our Solar System. Can we ever get there? The answer is... not easily.
A distance of 4.3 light-years equals trillions of miles away from Earth - nearly 300,000 times the distance from the Earth to the sun. How might we travel to Alpha Centauri, the next-nearest star? And how long would it take to get there?

Please remember that all but 2 of the world's countries use the metric system.
That means around 99.9% of your readers have no idea what a mile is.
Please ask your government to bring you, at least, into the 20th century.
The rest of us are happy in the 21st.
Is a mile a fraction of a league ?
How many chains in a mile ?
I can't fathom it out.
As in another post you commented on, who are you talking to? I didn't write the article, I just link to it.
And please, don't insult my readers. They know what a mile is.
