The Neighborhood [1]

This illustration depicts all of the star systems that are less than 15 light-years from Earth. The neighbors include Teegarden's Star (highlighted, above center), which is 12 light-years away. It is orbited by two planets that are similar to Earth, both of which are in the star's habitable zone, which is the region where conditions are most comfortable for life. [Inductiveload/Wikipedia]
