HD 167042 and Its Single Known Planet
HD 167042 is a K0 star 162 light-years away. Its reported mass estimate is 1.58 solar masses, larger than the Sun's, and its reported radius estimate is 4.16 solar radii, also larger than the Sun's. The star's reported temperature of 5020 K is cooler than the Sun's, and its age is 2.12 billion years. One planet orbits this host.
That planet, HD 167042 b, was discovered in 2007 by the radial velocity method, which measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion. It has a minimum mass of 444 Earth masses - a lower bound on its true mass, larger than Earth's and roughly 1.4 times Jupiter's mass. Its orbital period is 418 days.
