Trivia

Could we get there?

Verdict. Impossible with our current technology — and the next millennium of it.

Getting there

Aboard Voyager 1. ≈ 48.9 million years at Voyager 1's speed (17 km/s).
Fastest probe ever. ≈ 4.3 million years even at the Parker Solar Probe's 192 km/s.
At 10% light speed. ≈ 27.8 thousand years in a starship at a tenth of light speed.
Distance. 2781 light-years from Earth.

Look-back time

Look-back time. Its light left before the last ice age ended.

Saying hello

Say hello. A radio message and its reply would take 5563 years round-trip.

Standing on it

A year here. A full year lasts just 77.5 Earth days.

By the numbers

Size. About 13.4× the width of Earth.
Volume. About 2406 Earths could fit inside it.
Mass. Roughly 572× Earth's mass — about 1.8 Jupiters.
Your weight. You'd weigh about 3.2× your Earth weight standing here.
Temperature. A scorching 410°C on average.

How we found it

Discovery. Found by Multiple Observatories using the radial velocity method.

Why NGC 2682 Sand 1429 b is a common exoplanet

NGC 2682 Sand 1429 b scores 19 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the common tier. Another 5 points would lift it into a rarer tier.

That score comes from 3 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Gas giant and Distant (>1000 ly) — 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.
