>Alpha Proxima
You mean Alpha Centauri, the triple star system made of up of Alpha Centauri A (aka Rigil Kentaurus ), B (aka Toliman), and C (aka Proxima Centauri). There is no "Alpha Proxima"

Yeah. I combined "Alpha Centauri" and "Proxima Centauri" in my mind somehow.

Is it officially a 3 star system? I read something (probably from this sub) that said it was unknown if proxima was gravity bound to the other 2.
