TOI-4559 and Its Earth-Like Planet

TOI-4559 is a star 103 light-years from Earth with one known planet orbiting it, TOI-4559 b. The host star is 7 billion years old, with a mass of 0.392 solar masses, a radius of 0.374 solar radii, and a temperature of 3560 K. Its reported mass, radius, and temperature are all smaller or cooler than the Sun's.

TOI-4559 b was discovered by the transit method in 2024. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, dimming the observed brightness slightly. Repeated dips help establish the planet's orbital period, which for TOI-4559 b is 3.97 days. The planet has a radius of 1.42 Earth radii, larger than Earth's, and is classified as Earth-like, meaning its radius stays within 1.5 times Earth's.

The host star's age is 7 billion years.
