In the sky

A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 10.53. Visible from the whole Southern Hemisphere and north to latitude 37° N. South of latitude 37° S it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in April, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey

The light you see tonight set out around the year 1920. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 1.9 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around HIP 71135, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 7.38, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Perseus. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
