Our search for life beyond Earth has a new target – Proxima Centauri b. The potentially Earth-like planet in the habitable zone of our closest stellar neighbor could be reached in a little over 20 years by Breakthrough Starshot"s proposed "nanocrafts." In comparison, NASA"s space shuttle would take 165,000 years.
