We summarize evidence that multiple supernovae exploded within 100 pc of Earth in the past few Myr. These events had dramatic effects on the heliosphere, compressing it to within ~20 au. We advocate for cross-disciplinary research of nearby supernovae, including on interstellar dust and cosmic rays. We urge for support of theory work, direct exploration, and study of extrasolar astrospheres.
