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. ≈ 16 million years at Voyager 1's speed (17 km/s).
Fastest probe ever. ≈ 1.4 million years even at the Parker Solar Probe's 192 km/s.
At 10% light speed. ≈ 9116 years in a starship at a tenth of light speed.
Distance. 912 light-years from Earth.

Look-back time

Look-back time. The light you'd see left around the year 1114.

Saying hello

Say hello. A radio message and its reply would take 1823 years round-trip.

Standing on it

A year here. A full year lasts just 2.4 Earth days.

By the numbers

Size. About 12.8× the width of Earth.
Volume. About 2081 Earths could fit inside it.
Mass. Roughly 1000× Earth's mass — about 3.1 Jupiters.
Your weight. You'd weigh about 6.1× your Earth weight standing here.
Temperature. Around 1140°C — hotter than a self-cleaning oven.

How we found it

Discovery. Found by HATSouth using the transit method.

About HATS-57 b

HATS-57 b is a rare exoplanet. It lies about 911.6 light-years from Earth, has an equilibrium temperature near 1,413 K, spans roughly 12.77 Earth radii and weighs about 1,000.21 Earth masses.

Its surface is likely an ocean of molten rock.

How to see it

Like any astronomical target, HATS-57 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-57 b is a rare exoplanet

HATS-57 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.
