Elon Musk Eyes Distant Planet for Exploration.

Elon Musk expressed interest in visiting Proxima Centauri B, an exoplanet located over four light-years away in the Alpha Centauri star system. Proxima B is believed to be potentially habitable, sitting in the "habitable zone" away from its star where liquid water could exist. However, the exoplanet also experiences bouts of extreme ultraviolet radiation that may limit its habitability. While it's not exactly close by human standards, Musk remains intrigued by the possibility of exploring the planet, but only for research purposes.
