HIP 8923 is a G3 V star 215 light-years away. A G-type main-sequence dwarf of this kind is Sun-like in character. The star is 1.73 billion years old, holds 1.01 solar masses, and has a temperature of 5980 K, which is hotter than the Sun's. One planet orbits this host.
That planet is HIP 8923 b, discovered in 2026 by the radial velocity method, which measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion. The planet's orbital period is 5160 days, and its reported mass estimate is 3170 Earth masses, larger than Earth's and roughly 9.98 times Jupiter's mass.
