What are the 5 closest stars to Earth? And what are their distances in light years?

Question

I am more concerned about distances than names. And what is the closest observed exo-planet, and how far away is that in light years? Thanks in advance everyone I really appreciate it.

Answer 2

Here is a link to a list of every known star within 100 light years. The stars marked with asterisks (*) either have planets or are systems very much like our own (and therefore potentially capable of supporting Earth-like planets).
