TIC 52059926 b is an uncommon exoplanet. It lies about 706.4 light-years from Earth, shines at apparent magnitude 13.72, has spectral type K4.5 V and has an equilibrium temperature near 230 K.
Denser than Earth — a solid world of rock and iron, with no meaningful atmosphere to speak of by mass.
At apparent magnitude 13.72, it takes a larger telescope or a long-exposure image to capture.
Like any astronomical target, TIC 52059926 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.
TIC 52059926 b scores 22 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the uncommon tier. Another 12 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 4 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Gas giant, Eccentric orbit and Found by TESS — 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.
