Announced by NASA in 2011, it is the largest and outermost of six confirmed planets within this densely packed planetary system. Unlike its five inner companions that orbit cl...

HD 21749 b is a confirmed transiting planet orbiting the K-type star HD 21749 in the southern constellation Reticulum. NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite identified its transit in data released in 2019, and follow-up observations established a radius about 2.8 times Earth's and a mass of r...

HD 3167 c is a transiting sub-Neptune orbiting the K-type star HD 3167. Discovered in 2016 through transit observations, it has an orbital period of about 29.8 days and a radius roughly three times that of Earth. Its orbit is strongly misaligned with the star's equatorial plane and is often describe...

TOI-178 g is the outermost known planet in the six-planet TOI-178 system, a compact system orbiting a late K-type star. It is a transiting planet in the super-Earth to mini-Neptune size range, with an orbital period of about 20.7 days. Together with planets c, d, e, and f, it participates in a chain...

TOI-178 f is the second-outermost known planet in the six-planet TOI-178 system. It is a transiting planet in the super-Earth to mini-Neptune size range and circles its late K-type host star about once every 15.2 days. Its orbit is part of the Laplace-resonance chain formed by the system's five oute...

TOI-178 e is a transiting planet in the six-planet TOI-178 system, orbiting a late K-type star about once every 10 days. It lies within the system's chain of Laplace resonances, which involves planets c through g and relates their orbital periods through repeated integer combinations. The TOI-178 pl...

TOI-178 d is a transiting exoplanet orbiting the late K-type star TOI-178, whose system contains six known transiting planets. It has a radius of about 2.3 times Earth's and a low measured density, consistent with a substantial volatile or gaseous envelope rather than a purely rocky composition. Wit...

Wolf 503 b is a transiting exoplanet discovered in data from NASA's K2 mission. It orbits Wolf 503, a nearby K-type star, once every roughly six days and has a radius about twice Earth's. That size places it near the observed radius gap separating many smaller super-Earths from larger sub-Neptunes,...

TOI-700 c is a transiting sub-Neptune exoplanet orbiting the cool red dwarf TOI-700. NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite identified the system, which also contains smaller planets including TOI-700 d and TOI-700 e. The system is notable because two of its known planets, d and e, orbit in or...

Kepler-62b is the innermost known planet in the five-planet system orbiting Kepler-62, a K-type star. It was announced in 2013 using the transit method, which detects the slight dimming caused when a planet crosses the face of its star. Kepler-62b completes an orbit in about 5.7 days and is classifi...

Kepler-62c es uno de los cinco planetas conocidos del sistema Kepler-62, que orbita una estrella de tipo espectral K. Completa una vuelta alrededor de su estrella en aproximadamente 12,4 días y se encuentra mucho más cerca de ella que la región donde podría existir agua líquida en la superficie. Fue...

Kepler-62d is a transiting planet in the five-planet Kepler-62 system, which orbits a K-type star. It has a radius estimated at about 1.95 times that of Earth and completes an orbit in roughly 18.2 days. Its orbit is well inside the system's habitable-zone region, so the planet is not generally cons...

Kepler-90f is a confirmed Neptune-like exoplanet orbiting the G-type star Kepler-90.
