The goal of your paper is to describe the history of the discovery and research of Proxima Centauri. Another goal is to find the possibilities of traveling to this star. Some questions that your paper should answer are: When was Proxima Centauri discovered?
How was Proxima Centauri discovered?
How have scientists researched Proxima Centauri?
What technologies have they used? What types of data do these technologies collect?
Have spacecraft ever reached this star?
What are the limitations of sending spacecraft to Proxima Centauri?
What accommodations would humans need to travel to Proxima Centauri?
Now write down two more questions you have about Proxima Centauri that you plan to answer in your paper.

Once you complete your outline, write a 500- to 750-word paper using word processing software. Add a works cited page at the end to give credit to your sources. Submit your completed paper along with this activity to your teacher for evaluation.
