If someone was to travel from the solar system to Proximi Centauri, I believe that from their point of view time would pass normally and regardless of how fast they were travelling, the speed of light would still be c. As I understand it, as the person traveling approaches c relative to Earth time relative to Earth will pass more slowly. How is it possible though that from the point of view of the person traveling they could reach Proxima Centauri in less than 4.24 years? Wouldn't that require the star to move towards them at speed that relativity doesn't allow.
