In the sky

A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 19.68. Visible from the whole Northern Hemisphere and south to latitude 64° S. North of latitude 64° N it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in August, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey

The light you see tonight set out around 1367 BC. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 60 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around AT2021ueyL, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 14.92, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Antlia. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
