In the sky
A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 14.36. Visible from the whole Southern Hemisphere and north to latitude 67° N. South of latitude 67° S it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in July, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey
The light you see tonight set out around 768 BC. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 50 million years.
The Sun seen from there
From a planet around HATS-36, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 14.49, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Gemini. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
