HD 221420 and Its Planet
HD 221420 is a G2 IV-V star 102 light-years away with one known planet. Its spectral type is G2 IV-V. The star is 3.65 billion years old, has a mass of 1.35 solar masses, a radius of 1.95 solar radii, and a temperature of 5850 K. Its mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, and its temperature is hotter than the Sun's.
The planet HD 221420 b was discovered in 2019 by radial velocity, a method that detects the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion. The planet has a mass of 7280 Earth masses and an orbital period of 10100 days, completing one orbit in that time. Its mass estimate is larger than Earth's and roughly 22.9 times Jupiter's mass.
