Practically our back yard. The light we're seeing from it was emitted after the astronomers studying it were born. Some of them may even have already earned their PhDs ...

So its moving through the universe on the same course and speed as our solar system? If its distance from us is consistent then it would appear to be orbiting the same thing that our solar system is orbiting. If it isnt orbiting anything it would be falling away from us about 515,000 MPH because we are hauling ass going this way.

In 20 light years, I’ll be dead. Doctor says I’ll be lucky to survive the next 10 light years.
