About this world
TOI-2345 c is a sub-Neptune orbiting TOI-2345, an orange dwarf (type K) 266 light-years from Earth. It is about 2.5 times the size of Earth and holds 7.3 Earth masses. It completes an orbit every 21.1 days at 0.13 AU from its star, closer than Mercury is to the Sun.
Its equilibrium temperature is about 544 K (271 °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 2025 by transit with Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). A planet crosses its star and dims it by a tiny, periodic fraction. TOI-2345 has 2 known planets; the others are TOI-2345 b.
