In the sky

A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 22.37. Visible from the whole Northern Hemisphere and south to latitude 58° S. North of latitude 58° N it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in September, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey

The light you see tonight set out around the year 1739. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 5.1 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around PSO J349.3359+32.0532, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 9.55, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Hydra. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
