In the sky

Too faint for the naked eye (magnitude 6.53); binoculars will find it. Visible from the whole Northern Hemisphere and south to latitude 66° S. North of latitude 66° N it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in October, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey

The light you see tonight set out around the year 1567. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 8.1 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around HD 14067, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 10.57, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Hydra. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
