In the sky

A telescope is needed to see it: its apparent magnitude is 12.66. Visible from the whole Southern Hemisphere and north to latitude 58° N. South of latitude 58° S it never sets. It stands highest at midnight in June, the best time to observe it.

Light's journey

The light you see tonight set out around 79 BC. At the speed of Voyager 1, the fastest craft leaving the Solar System (16.9 km per second), the trip would take 37 million years.

The Sun seen from there

From a planet around TOI-4379, the Sun would look like a star of magnitude 13.88, in the direction where our sky has the constellation Auriga. It would be invisible to the naked eye.
