How far, from the Sun

About 931 light-years. To cross it:

• Light931 years
• Voyager 1's speed16.6 million years
• Driving at 100 km/h10.1 billion years

Voyager 1 at the speed it moved outward over the year to 2026-10-25 (JPL Horizons). Driving: nonstop, never refuelling.

How it was found

• First planet found in 2023, by transit (NASA Exoplanet Archive).

Its planets

• TIC 279401253 c — 13 times Earth's width (estimated from its mass, not measured), a giant, Jupiter-sized or more; its year lasts 160 days; about 110 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2023 by transit.
• TIC 279401253 b — 11 times Earth's width, a giant, Jupiter-sized or more; its year lasts 77 days; about 210 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2023 by transit.

Where this comes from

• 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.
