Trivia

Could we get there?

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

Getting there

  • Aboard Voyager 1. ≈ 3.5 million years at Voyager 1's speed (17 km/s).
  • Fastest probe ever. ≈ 309.6 thousand years even at the Parker Solar Probe's 192 km/s.
  • At 10% light speed. ≈ 1983 years in a starship at a tenth of light speed.
  • Distance. 198 light-years from Earth.

Look-back time

  • Look-back time. The light you'd see left around the year 1828.

Saying hello

  • Say hello. A radio message and its reply would take 397 years round-trip.

Standing on it

  • A year here. A full year lasts just 484 Earth days.

By the numbers

  • Size. About 11.8× the width of Earth.
  • Volume. About 1643 Earths could fit inside it.
  • Mass. Roughly 95.3× Earth's mass — about 0.3 Jupiters.
  • Your weight. You'd weigh about 0.7× your Earth weight standing here.
  • Density. Less dense than water — drop it in a big enough ocean and it would float.
  • Temperature. A scorching 184°C on average.

How we found it

  • Discovery. Found by Okayama Astrophysical Observatory using the radial velocity method.

Cosmic context

  • Crowded system. One of at least 3 planets orbiting its star.

About HD 184010 c

HD 184010 c is a common exoplanet. It lies about 198.3 light-years from Earth, has an equilibrium temperature near 458 K, spans roughly 11.8 Earth radii and weighs about 95.35 Earth masses.

One of at least 3 planets orbiting its star.

How to see it

Like any astronomical target, HD 184010 c 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 HD 184010 c is a common exoplanet

HD 184010 c scores 15 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the common tier. Another 9 points would lift it into a rarer tier.

That score comes from 3 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Gas giant and Multi-planet system — 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.
