Trivia

What it actually is

  • Hugging its star. It orbits closer to its star than Mercury does to the Sun, completing a lap in less time than Mercury takes.
  • What it is made of. Its density says rock, though lighter than Earth's mix: probably less iron, or a thick shell of water and ice over the top.

Find it in the sky

  • How to spot it. At magnitude 16.2 it is far too faint for the eye: this one belongs to cameras and long exposures.
  • Northern sky. It rides the northern half of the sky — an easier target the further north you are.
  • Best time of year. It stands highest in the middle of the night around July — that's when to go looking.

Standing on it

  • A year here. A full year lasts just 13.4 Earth days.
  • Starlight here. It receives about 17.3 times as much starlight as Earth gets from the Sun.

By the numbers

  • Size. About 1.7× the width of Earth.

About Kepler-1795 b

Kepler-1795 b is a common exoplanet. It shines at apparent magnitude 16.19, has an equilibrium temperature near 520 K, spans roughly 1.66 Earth radii and weighs about 3.4 Earth masses.

It orbits closer to its star than Mercury does to the Sun, completing a lap in less time than Mercury takes.

How to see it

At apparent magnitude 16.19, it takes a larger telescope or a long-exposure image to capture.

Like any astronomical target, Kepler-1795 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.

Why Kepler-1795 b is a common exoplanet

Kepler-1795 b scores 16 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the common tier. Another 6 points would lift it into a rarer tier.

That score comes from 3 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Super-Earth and Found by Kepler — 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.
