WASP-95 and Its Jupiter-Like Planet
WASP-95 is a G2 star 449 light-years away, and it hosts one known planet. The star is 2.4 billion years old, with a mass of 1.11 solar masses and a radius of 1.13 solar radii. Its temperature is 5630 K. The star's reported mass and radius are each larger than the Sun's, while its temperature is cooler.
The planet WASP-95 b is Jupiter-like, discovered by transit in 2014. With a radius of 13.8 Earth radii, it is larger than Earth, and its mass of 458 Earth masses is also larger than Earth's - roughly 1.44 times Jupiter's mass. The planet completes an orbit in 2.18 days. Its mean density is 0.962 g/cm³, 0.175 times Earth's.
