In the sky
A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 14.47. Visible from the whole Northern Hemisphere and south to latitude 40° S. North of latitude 40° N it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in December, the best time to observe it.
Through a telescope from Earth
Light's journey
The light you see tonight set out around the year 1995. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 551 thousand years.
The Sun seen from there
From a planet around G 192-15, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 4.72, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Ara. It would be visible to the naked eye.
