The two other stars brighter than Centauri include Canopus and Sirius. Alpha Centauri has multiple stars in it. Like the Solar System, it has two Stars at its center. Similarly, there is existence of gravitational force keeping it together. These two Stars at the center make it a lot more similar to how our Solar System works.
