HATS-70 b is an epic exoplanet. It lies about 4,758.1 light-years from Earth, shines at apparent magnitude 12.23, has an equilibrium temperature near 2,730 K and spans roughly 15.51 Earth radii.
So hot that iron vaporises on the dayside, blows around to the night side and rains back down as molten metal.
At apparent magnitude 12.23, it takes a larger telescope or a long-exposure image to capture.
Like any astronomical target, HATS-70 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.
HATS-70 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 7 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Distant (over 1,000 light-years), Gas giant, Ultra-hot Jupiter, Tidally locked, Blasted by starlight and Orbits a hot blue-white star — 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.
