KIC 10001893 b is an epic exoplanet. It lies about 5,456.4 light-years from Earth, shines at apparent magnitude 15.83, completes an orbit every 0.22 days and belongs to a system of 3 known planets.
It orbits closer to its star than Mercury does to the Sun, completing a lap in less time than Mercury takes.
At apparent magnitude 15.83, it takes a larger telescope or a long-exposure image to capture.
Like any astronomical target, KIC 10001893 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.
KIC 10001893 b scores 58 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the epic tier. Another 20 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 7 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Distant (over 1,000 light-years), Ultra-short period, Multi-planet system, Found by Kepler, Orbits a hot blue-white star and Disputed — it may not be there at all — 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.
