1 The nearest star is some 4.2 light years away, and that distance was known to within an accuracy of better than 0.1 light year. 2  For a star measured as 20 light years away, the distance estimate is accurate to within a light year or so.  For stars 50 light years away, the margin of error is perhaps 5 to 10 light years.
That's two questions Alpha Centauri is our nearest star 4.36 Light years away so it would take you 4.36 years travelling at the speed of light to reach it. Don't really know how that converts to our fastest space craft a few centuries as a rough guess.
