GJ 508.2 b is an uncommon exoplanet. It lies about 54.3 light-years from Earth, shines at apparent magnitude 10.61, has spectral type M1.0 V and has an equilibrium temperature near 59 K.
A deep-frozen world, too far from its star's warmth for anything to stay liquid.
At apparent magnitude 10.61, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, GJ 508.2 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.
GJ 508.2 b scores 23 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the uncommon tier. Another 11 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 3 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Frozen world and Long-period world — 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.
