In the sky

A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 9.71. Visible from the whole Northern Hemisphere and south to latitude 14° S. North of latitude 14° N it never sets.

Light's journey

The light you see tonight set out around the year 1811. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 3.8 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around TOI-1630, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 8.93, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Musca. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
