“So, beyond Pluto? Still a long way to anywhere else.”
Yep. Walk a couple of steps on US 50 on the west side of Nevada and ignore the rest of the distance to Utah.

Indeed, the $100 million Breakthrough Starshot initiative, announced in 2016, plans to launch swarms of microchip-size spacecraft to Alpha Centauri, each of them sporting extraordinarily thin, incredibly reflective sails propelled by the most powerful lasers ever built. The plan has them flying at up to 20% the speed of light, reaching Alpha Centauri in about 20 years. (with cameras)
