I actually thought Transit of Earth was written later than 1971. It is certainly his most mature short story, and beautifully put together.

But The Star is Clarke’s best work, and one of the best SF short stories ever, IMHO.

A quick google search can find it

Not sure if I’ve read it, but I just devour good scifi…I look for it!
