Trivia

What makes it special

Frozen world. A deep-frozen world far from its star's warmth.

Could we get there?

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

Getting there

Aboard Voyager 1. ≈ 3.2 million years at Voyager 1's speed (17 km/s).
Fastest probe ever. ≈ 287.4 thousand years even at the Parker Solar Probe's 192 km/s.
At 10% light speed. ≈ 1841 years in a starship at a tenth of light speed.
Distance. 184 light-years from Earth.

Look-back time

Look-back time. The light you'd see left around the year 1842.

Saying hello

Say hello. A radio message and its reply would take 368 years round-trip.

Standing on it

A year here. A full year lasts about 6.7 Earth years.

By the numbers

Size. About 13.3× the width of Earth.
Volume. About 2353 Earths could fit inside it.
Mass. Roughly 772× Earth's mass — about 2.4 Jupiters.
Your weight. You'd weigh about 4.4× your Earth weight standing here.
Temperature. A frigid -133°C — colder than dry ice.

How we found it

Discovery. Found by La Silla Observatory using the radial velocity method.

A deep-frozen world far from its star's warmth.

How to see it

Like any astronomical target, HD 290327 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 HD 290327 b is a common exoplanet

HD 290327 b scores 17 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the common tier. Another 7 points would lift it into a rarer tier.

That score comes from 3 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Gas giant and Frozen 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.
