HD 202206 is 150 light-years from the Sun. The NASA Exoplanet Archive lists 2 planets around this G2 V star; the first was found in 2004 by radial velocity (La Silla Observatory).
Fly there in 3DHD 202206 c takes 3.6 years to go round its star once.

Values are the NASA Exoplanet Archive’s composite parameters. A radius marked estimated comes from a mass–radius relation; a mass marked minimum is M sin i. Planet sizes and colours in the 3D view are renderings: none of these worlds has been photographed as more than a point of light.
For a star of 5,764 K, 1.1 times as bright as the Sun, the habitable zone, where starlight could keep water liquid on a rocky surface, runs from about 0.99 to 1.75 AU. None of its known planets orbits inside it. The zone says how much starlight arrives, not whether a planet has water or air. The edges follow Kopparapu et al. (2014), as the 3D view draws them.
The light you see left 150 years ago, around 1880.
