Proxima Centauri, the nearest star beyond the Sun, lies about 4.24 light-years away. Despite its name, the light-year measures distance, not time.
About Rod (rd)
Also known as a perch or pole, the rod equals 16.5 feet (5.0292 meters) and was historically the standard length of an ox goad. It served as the primary unit of land measurement in England before the metric system, and many old property deeds and legal descriptions still reference distances in rods.
