The Southern Milky Way between Scorpius and Centaurus.
Rigil Kent (α Centauri) and Hadar (β Centauri) are the "pointer stars" (not to be confused with the Pointer Sisters) to the Southern Cross.
Alpha Centauri is our Solar System's closet stellar neighbor. If a 6 light-year social distancing policy was enforced in the sky, Rigel Kent would be too close.
