WASP-80b
WASP-80 b is a gas giant exoplanet orbiting a K-type star. Its mass is 0.538 Jupiter, it takes 3.1 days to complete an orbit of its star and it is 0.0344 AU from its star. Its discovery was announced in Continue Reading
WASP-85b
WASP-85 Ab is an exoplanet orbiting WASP-85 A, a star that is part of a binary system. The mass and radius of WASP-85 Ab indicate that it has a bulk composition like that of Jupiter. Unlike Jupiter, and similar to Continue Reading
WASP-138b
WASP-138 b is a gas giant exoplanet orbiting an F-type star. Its mass is 1.22 Jupiter, it takes 3.6 days to complete an orbit of its star and it is 0.0494 AU from its star. Its discovery was announced in Continue Reading
WASP-104b
WASP-104b is a hot Jupiter — a gaseous planet the size of Jupiter — that lies 466 light-years from Earth in the constellation Leo. Its particularity is that it is as dark as coal. In fact, this is precisely how Continue Reading
WASP-103b
WASP-103 b is a gaseous exoplanet, more specifically a hot Jupiter, located in the constellation Hercules orbiting the star WASP-103. It has an oval shape, similar to that of a rugby ball, thanks to the force of gravity exerted by Continue Reading
WASP-93b
WASP-93 b is a gas giant exoplanet orbiting an F-type star. Its mass is 1.47 Jupiter, it takes 2.7 days to complete an orbit of its star and it is 0.04211 AU from its star. Its discovery was announced in Continue Reading
Kepler-12b
Kepler-12, also known as KIC 11804465 in the Kepler Input Catalog, is a late G-type F star. This strongly corresponds to a solar-type dwarf star reaching the end of the main sequence, and is about to become a red giant. Continue Reading
Kepler-15b
Kepler-15b is an exoplanet orbiting the star Kepler-15. It was discovered in 2011 by the Kepler satellite using the astronomical transit method and later confirmed by the Hobby-Eberly telescope. It is a gaseous planet of somewhat smaller proportions than the Continue Reading
