HD 68475 and Its Planet

HD 68475 is a K2 VC star 109 light-years away, and one planet orbits this host. The star's reported mass estimate is 0.83 solar masses and its reported radius estimate is 0.791 solar radii, both smaller than the Sun's. Its reported temperature is 5020 K, cooler than the Sun's.

The planet HD 68475 b was discovered by Radial Velocity in 2026. The radial velocity method measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion; repeated wobbles reveal the planet and its orbital period. HD 68475 b has a mass of 1640 Earth masses and an orbital period of 7830 days. Its reported mass estimate is larger than Earth's and roughly 5.16 times Jupiter's mass.
