In SYFY’s ongoing deep space adventure The Ark (airing every Wednesday on SYFY, then streaming the next day on Peacock), a crew of astronauts board the last life boat off of Earth and embark upon a one way trip to another world. Their target is Proxima Centauri b, the closest exoplanet orbiting a star 4.2 light years away. It makes a certain amount of sense as a secondary home.
