About this world
HD 205158 b is a gas giant orbiting HD 205158, a yellow-white F-type star 283 light-years from Earth. It is about 1.2 times the size of Jupiter (its size estimated from its mass), with at least 0.39 Jupiter masses (a minimum, measured by radial velocity). It completes an orbit every 25.3 days at 0.18 AU from its star, closer than Mercury is to the Sun.
Its equilibrium temperature is about 963 K (690 °C): far too hot for liquid water on its surface. At its size it almost certainly keeps a deep envelope of hydrogen and helium.
It was discovered in 2022 by radial velocity with Multiple Observatories. The star wobbles toward and away from us, Doppler-shifting its spectrum.
