Out of our Solar system

Now we are out of the solar system and into the dark and mysterious realm of Interstellar space. 
We move further away from the solar system into the Solar Interstellar neighbourhood and we can see many more stars.  
The nearest star to our solar system is Proxima Centauri, which is 4.243 light years away.  
We move further away into space and we find that our Sun is a part of the Milkyway Galaxy.
