*'''Redirect to [[Earth analog]].''' "Earth Proxima" is not a term in widespread use, but "Earth analog" is. My Google searches for "Earth Proxima" turned up only a few hits, and as the nominator points out, it is essentially an arbitrary buzzword promoted by one documentary. [[Earth analog]] already does a good job of covering the material that this article seeks to convey, and I see no reason to duplicate that material by keeping this article.

  • Redirect to Earth analog. "Earth Proxima" is not a term in widespread use, but "Earth analog" is. My Google searches for "Earth Proxima" turned up only a few hits, and as the nominator points out, it is essentially an arbitrary buzzword promoted by one documentary. Earth analog already does a good job of covering the material that this article seeks to convey, and I see no reason to duplicate that material by keeping this article.
