Voyager 1 mit der Geschwindigkeit, mit der sie sich im Jahr bis 2026-10-25 nach außen bewegte (JPL Horizons). Fahrt: ohne Pause, ohne je nachzutanken.
Wie er entdeckt wurde
Erster Planet, entdeckt 2016 durch Radialgeschwindigkeit und Transit (NASA Exoplanet Archive).
Seine Planeten
K2-73 c — 13 times Earth's width (estimated from its mass, not measured), a giant, Jupiter-sized or more; its year lasts about 3 Earth years; about −87 °C, below freezing; found in 2025 by radial velocity.
K2-73 b — 2.6 times Earth's width, a 'sub-Neptune' — bigger than Earth, smaller than Neptune; its year lasts 7 days; about 700 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2016 by transit.
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.
