In the sky
A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 10.16. Visible from the whole Northern Hemisphere and south to latitude 45° S. North of latitude 45° N it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in June, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey
The light you see tonight set out around the year 812. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 22 million years.
The Sun seen from there
From a planet around HAT-P-67, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 12.68, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Pictor. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
