A very rough calculation would suggested that the cylinder that goes from our solar system to Proxima Centauri contains 5000 similarly sized objects moving at the same speed:

1 object crossing the solar system plane every 5 years at 60km/s

+

Proxima Centauri is approximately 5 light years away

=>

there are `speed of light / 60km/s` objects in the cylinder.
