HD 5608 and Its Planet
HD 5608 is a K0 IV star 190 light-years away with one known planet. The star is 1.72 billion years old, has a mass of 1.72 solar masses, a radius of 4.93 solar radii, and a temperature of 4930 K. Its mass and radius are larger than the Sun's, and its temperature is cooler.
The planet HD 5608 b was discovered in 2012 by the radial velocity method, which detects the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star. It has a minimum mass of 371 Earth masses, roughly 1.17 times Jupiter's mass, and an orbital period of 769 days.
