TIC 142589416 b is a trash exoplanet. It lies about 551 light-years from Earth, shines at apparent magnitude 14.02, spans roughly 2.68 Earth radii and weighs about 7.65 Earth masses.
It orbits closer to its star than Mercury does to the Sun, completing a lap in less time than Mercury takes.
At apparent magnitude 14.02, it takes a larger telescope or a long-exposure image to capture.
Like any astronomical target, TIC 142589416 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 142589416 b scores 14 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the trash tier. Another 1 point would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 3 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Sub-Neptune 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.
