coordinates of  S = (1,2) and E = (-5,-6)

distance between these 

=  sqrt((6^2 +8^2)
= sqrt 100
 = 10

Stars are in space, and since we don't know the true nature of space and believe in the postulates of theoretical physics, the closest distance between the two stars is 0. See the attached drawing.
