Past Horizons, 2014. The light that missed the earth on this day has gone on to travel 35,218,281,600,000 (35 Trillion) miles over the last 6 years. Two years ago the light seen on this day will have been seen by Proxima Centauri (the the other stars in Alpha Centauri system). This year (ish) it will be visible from our next closest Star Bernards Star. 🤯
