Trivia

What makes it special

  • Lava world. Its surface is likely an ocean of molten rock.

Could we get there?

  • Verdict. Hopelessly far for any craft humanity can build today.

Getting there

  • Aboard Voyager 1. ≈ 14.2 million years at Voyager 1's speed (17 km/s).
  • Fastest probe ever. ≈ 1.3 million years even at the Parker Solar Probe's 192 km/s.
  • At 10% light speed. ≈ 8104 years in a starship at a tenth of light speed.
  • Distance. 810 light-years from Earth.

Look-back time

  • Look-back time. The light you'd see left around the year 1216.

Saying hello

  • Say hello. A radio message and its reply would take 1621 years round-trip.

Standing on it

  • A year here. A full year lasts just 2.5 Earth days.

By the numbers

  • Size. About 13.8× the width of Earth.
  • Volume. About 2621 Earths could fit inside it.
  • Mass. Roughly 379× Earth's mass — about 1.2 Jupiters.
  • Your weight. You'd weigh about 2.0× your Earth weight standing here.
  • Density. Less dense than water — drop it in a big enough ocean and it would float.
  • Temperature. Around 1156°C — hotter than a self-cleaning oven.

How we found it

  • Discovery. Found by HATSouth using the transit method.

About HATS-33 b

HATS-33 b is a rare exoplanet. It lies about 810.4 light-years from Earth, has an equilibrium temperature near 1,429 K, spans roughly 13.79 Earth radii and weighs about 378.85 Earth masses.

Its surface is likely an ocean of molten rock.

How to see it

Like any astronomical target, HATS-33 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.

Why HATS-33 b is a rare exoplanet

HATS-33 b scores 33 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the rare tier. Another 13 points would lift it into a rarer tier.

That score comes from 4 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Gas giant, Hot Jupiter and Lava 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.
