Trivia

What makes it special

Packed system. Crammed into a system of five or more planets.

Could we get there?

Verdict. Hopelessly far for any craft humanity can build today.

Getting there

Aboard Voyager 1. ≈ 3.7 million years at Voyager 1's speed (17 km/s).
Fastest probe ever. ≈ 329 thousand years even at the Parker Solar Probe's 192 km/s.
At 10% light speed. ≈ 2107 years in a starship at a tenth of light speed.
Distance. 211 light-years from Earth.

Look-back time

Look-back time. The light you'd see left around the year 1815.

Saying hello

Say hello. A radio message and its reply would take 421 years round-trip.

Standing on it

A year here. A full year lasts just 14.2 Earth days.

By the numbers

Size. About 2.5× the width of Earth.
Volume. About 16.4 Earths could fit inside it.
Mass. About 7× the mass of Earth.
Your weight. You'd weigh about 1.1× your Earth weight standing here.
Temperature. Around 435°C — hotter than a self-cleaning oven.

How we found it

Discovery. Found by Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) using the transit method.

Cosmic context

Crowded system. One of at least 5 planets orbiting its star.

Why TOI-1233.01 is a rare exoplanet

TOI-1233.01 scores 34 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the rare tier. Another 12 points would lift it into a rarer tier.

That score comes from 5 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Sub-Neptune, Multi-planet system, Richly packed system 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.
