HD 60292 and Its Planet

HD 60292 is a K0 III star located 1030 light-years away. The star has an age of 1.8 billion years, a mass of 1.7 solar masses, a radius of 27 solar radii, and a temperature of 4350 K. Its reported mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, while its reported temperature is cooler. One planet orbits this host.

HD 60292 b was discovered in 2020 using the radial velocity method, which measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion. The planet has a minimum mass of 2070 Earth masses, a lower bound on its true mass, and an orbital period of 495 days. Its minimum mass is larger than Earth's and roughly 6.5 times Jupiter's mass.
