TWA 7 b is an epic exoplanet. It lies about 110.9 light-years from Earth, shines at apparent magnitude 11.77, has an equilibrium temperature near 316 K and spans roughly 12.7 Earth radii.
Discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope, the largest telescope ever flown.
At apparent magnitude 11.77, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, TWA 7 b is best seen from a dark site away from city lights, and when it is above the horizon depends on your latitude and the time of year. The visibility panel above works out tonight's viewing window for your saved location.
TWA 7 b scores 69 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the epic tier. Another 9 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 6 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Gas giant, Puffy low-density world, Found by JWST, Directly imaged and Orbits beyond Neptune's distance — each earned for a real, measurable property of the object. Rarity on Spacedle is never random: the more remarkable an object's astrophysics, the more badges it collects, the higher it scores, and the rarer it ranks.
