A scientific-looking scene of our nearest neighbour, with every number traceable.

What's included

• Proxima Centauri (red dwarf) and its planets, with orbits from published periods and masses.
• Semi-major axes computed with Kepler's third law from period and stellar mass.
• Radii of non-transiting planets estimated from mass (Chen & Kipping 2017) and labelled as estimates.
• Habitable zone (Kopparapu 2014), equilibrium temperature and insolation computed and shown.
• 6 cameras: general, inner, top and one per planet. Studio or physical lighting, adaptive scale, labels.
• A ready-to-render .blend (Cycles) with the script embedded, plus the script itself so you can change any setting and rebuild.
• README with what is real and what is not, CREDITS with all references.

What is illustrative (we say it up front)

• Planet c is a candidate, not a confirmed planet; the scene says so.
• Planet surfaces are illustrative; no real image of these planets exists.
• Radii are estimates from minimum mass. Orbits are circular and coplanar, with random starting phases.

Who it is for: science communicators, teachers, YouTube creators, and anyone who wants an honest picture of the closest planetary system.
