In 1992, I think Voyager 2 was still closer to the sun than Pluto. Wouldn't the sun still be the brightest star in the sky?

The spell hides current environment, except for a floor/ground "disk." It could be oriented so that the sun is down and thus out of sight.

I thought that that would be where Earth was, but at that distance, you're right; the Sun would make much more sense.

From Pluto, the sun looks like 'the brightest star in the sky', not like an actual solar body. Not sure about halfway point.
