K2-18 b is an epic exoplanet. It lies about 124 light-years from Earth, has an equilibrium temperature near 284 K, spans roughly 2.37 Earth radii and weighs about 8.92 Earth masses.
Sits where it's neither too hot nor too cold — liquid water could exist.
Like any astronomical target, K2-18 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.
K2-18 b scores 46 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the epic tier. Another 22 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 4 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, In the habitable zone, Sub-Neptune 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.
