HIP 98599 is an F7 V star 248 light-years away. Its spectral type marks it as an F-type main-sequence dwarf, a class hotter than the Sun's G type. The star's reported mass estimate is larger than the Sun's, at 1.19 solar masses, and it is 5.23 billion years old with a temperature of 5980 K. One planet is known to orbit this host.
That planet, HIP 98599 b, was discovered in 2026 by the radial velocity method, which measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion; repeated wobbles reveal the planet and its orbital period. HIP 98599 b has a reported mass estimate of 2180 Earth masses, larger than Earth's and roughly 6.85 times Jupiter's mass, and it orbits the star every 2660 days.
