TYC 8998-760-1 c is an epic exoplanet. It lies about 308.6 light-years from Earth, shines at apparent magnitude 11.12, has spectral type K3 IV and has an equilibrium temperature near 1,240 K.
Denser than Earth — a solid world of rock and iron, with no meaningful atmosphere to speak of by mass.
At apparent magnitude 11.12, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, TYC 8998-760-1 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.
TYC 8998-760-1 c scores 53 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the epic tier. Another 25 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 6 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Gas giant, Hot Jupiter, Multi-planet system, Directly imaged and Orbits beyond Neptune's distance — 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.
