In the sky

A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 13.30. Visible from the whole Northern Hemisphere and south to latitude 71° S. North of latitude 71° 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 1945. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 1.4 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around TOI-1468, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 6.80, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Virgo. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
