TIC 245076932 b
A confirmed world orbiting TIC 245076932, 991.4 light-years away.
A gas giant
10.87 Earth radii, Jupiter-class (Jupiter is 11.2). At only 162.1 Earth masses for that size, it must be substantially gas or volatile ices: puffy, not rocky.
The orbit
Its year, one full orbit, takes just 21.6 Earth days. The orbit is strongly stretched (eccentricity 0.43), so its distance from the star, and with it the climate, swings dramatically.
Temperature and starlight
Its equilibrium temperature (the airless-world estimate) is about 572 °C. Hotter than Venus's surface. It receives 85.6 times the starlight Earth gets.
Its sun
Its star is hotter than the Sun (6,130 K), burning brighter and faster.
How far is that, really?
At 991 light-years, tonight's light from this system left it around the year 1034. A Voyager-speed probe would need roughly 17,540,169 years to get there.
How we found it
It was found by the transit method: the planet crosses its star's face on schedule, dimming it by a tiny, repeating fraction. The dip's depth gives the planet's size. The discovery was announced in 2026 from Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS).
Everything above is computed from the archive’s measured values for this planet. Where a quantity is missing, the statement is omitted rather than guessed.
About this record
The measured values come from the NASA Exoplanet Archive, and any missing value has not been determined yet; the Atlas never fills gaps with guesses. More standout worlds: Proxima b, TRAPPIST-1e, K2-18 b, 55 Cancri e, and the detection methods that found them all.
