HD 220773 is an F9 star 165 light-years away. It is 4.4 billion years old, has a mass of 1.16 solar masses, and a temperature of 5940 K. Its mass estimate is larger than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is hotter than the Sun's. One planet orbits this star.
That planet, HD 220773 b, was discovered in 2011 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. Its minimum mass is 461 Earth masses, a lower bound on its true mass, and roughly 1.45 times Jupiter's mass. Its minimum mass is larger than Earth's. HD 220773 b takes 3720 days to complete one orbit.
