The Exciting Discovery of TOI-4465 b
Discovering distant exoplanets poses many challenges. However, a dedicated team of astronomers has successfully identified a new gas giant exoplanet named TOI-4465 b. This exciting find lies approximately 400 light-years away from Earth. The exoplanet completes its orbit in 102 days and takes just 12 hours to transit across its host star.
The work of these citizen scientists highlights the power of collaboration in discovering celestial bodies that are often elusive. Using advanced observation techniques, they have contributed valuable data that enhances our understanding of the universe. This discovery not only enriches our knowledge of exoplanets but also showcases the vital role of amateur astronomers in scientific research.
