In the sky

A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 23.98. Visible from the whole Southern Hemisphere and north to latitude 65° N. South of latitude 65° S 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 19 thousand years ago. At that time Homo sapiens was spreading out of Africa; there was no farming yet. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 337 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around OGLE-2019-BLG-0362L, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 18.66, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Taurus. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
