Habitable zone
Inside the inner edge of the habitable zone: it receives 3,820 times the light the Earth does, too hot to keep liquid water on its surface.
Its star in the sky
In the planet's sky its star is a disc 25° across: 47 times the Sun as we see it from Earth.
In the sky
A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 13.70. Visible from the whole Southern Hemisphere and north to latitude 44° N. South of latitude 44° S it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in March, the best time to observe it.
Light's journey
The light you see tonight set out around 1106 BC. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 56 million years.
