kap And b is an epic exoplanet. It lies about 163.1 light-years from Earth, has an equilibrium temperature near 1,791 K, spans roughly 15.92 Earth radii and weighs about 5,498.43 Earth masses.
Its surface is likely an ocean of molten rock.
Like any astronomical target, kap And 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.
kap And b scores 49 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the epic tier. Another 19 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 5 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Gas giant, Hot Jupiter, Lava world and Directly imaged — 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.
