In the sky

Visible to the naked eye under a dark sky (apparent magnitude 5.94). Visible from the whole Northern Hemisphere and south to latitude 21° S. North of latitude 21° N it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in November, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey

The light you see tonight set out around the year 520. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 27 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around HIP 13367, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 13.15, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Circinus. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
