In the sky

Too faint for the naked eye (magnitude 8.25); binoculars will find it. Visible from the whole Northern Hemisphere and south to latitude 55° S. North of latitude 55° N it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in February, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey

The light you see tonight set out around the year 1850. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 3.1 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around TOI-1774, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 8.49, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Piscis Austrinus. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
