In the sky

A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 11.63. Visible from the whole Northern Hemisphere and south to latitude 73° S. North of latitude 73° N it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in May, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey

The light you see tonight set out around the year 1133. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 16 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around TOI-4029, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 12.02, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Eridanus. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
