In the sky

A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 9.91. Visible from the whole Southern Hemisphere and north to latitude 47° N. South of latitude 47° S it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in March, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey

The light you see tonight set out around the year 935. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 19 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around TOI-2005, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 12.45, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Lacerta. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
