Trivia

What makes it special

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

Could we get there?

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

Getting there

  • Aboard Voyager 1. ≈ 23.8 million years at Voyager 1's speed (17 km/s).
  • Fastest probe ever. ≈ 2.1 million years even at the Parker Solar Probe's 192 km/s.
  • At 10% light speed. ≈ 13.5 thousand years in a starship at a tenth of light speed.
  • Distance. 1354 light-years from Earth.

Look-back time

  • Look-back time. The light you'd see left around the year 672.

Saying hello

  • Say hello. A radio message and its reply would take 2708 years round-trip.

Standing on it

  • A year here. A full year lasts just 0.9 Earth days.

By the numbers

  • Size. About 14× the width of Earth.
  • Volume. About 2731 Earths could fit inside it.
  • Mass. Roughly 639× Earth's mass — about 2 Jupiters.
  • Your weight. You'd weigh about 3.3× your Earth weight standing here.
  • Temperature. Around 2097 K — hot enough to vaporise iron.

How we found it

  • Discovery. Found by Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) using the transit method.

About TOI-1937 A b

TOI-1937 A b is an anomaly exoplanet. It lies about 1,354 light-years from Earth, has an equilibrium temperature near 2,097 K, spans roughly 13.98 Earth radii and weighs about 638.84 Earth masses.

Its surface is likely an ocean of molten rock.

How to see it

Like any astronomical target, TOI-1937 A 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 TOI-1937 A b is an anomaly exoplanet

TOI-1937 A b scores 69 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the anomaly tier. Another 26 points would lift it into a rarer tier.

That score comes from 8 science badges — Confirmed exoplanet, Gas giant, Hot Jupiter, Lava world, Ultra-short period, Blasted by starlight, Found by TESS 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.
