Facts
HD 93083 b has an equilibrium temperature between −50 and +50 °C.
How it was found
First planet found in 2005, by radial velocity (NASA Exoplanet Archive).
Its planets
GJ 1137 c — 2.1 times Earth's width (estimated from its mass, not measured), a 'sub-Neptune' — bigger than Earth, smaller than Neptune; its year lasts 10 days; about 500 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2026 by radial velocity.
HD 93083 b — 14 times Earth's width (estimated from its mass, not measured), a giant, Jupiter-sized or more; its year lasts 140 days; about 39 °C, between freezing and boiling; found in 2005 by radial velocity.
NASA Exoplanet Archive, Planetary Systems Composite Parameters (fetched 2026-11-02). Composite values: where a planet's size or mass was not measured, the archive estimates it from the other.
This research has made use of the NASA Exoplanet Archive, which is operated by the California Institute of Technology, under contract with NASA under the Exoplanet Exploration Program.
