So this object is a bit more than 11 billion miles from the sun?
And Alpha Centauri is 4.2 light years away, which is 24,635,923,200,000 miles?
So this object is roughly 0.046% of the way to the next star?
Assuming that the Alpha Centauri system reaches out to us as much as our system reaches out to Alpha Centauri, I am surprised that the two systems reach out to each other as much as they do.
Almost 10% of the distance between the stars consists of the systems that surround the stars?
