About this world
TOI-5788 b is a super-Earth orbiting TOI-5788, a yellow, Sun-like star 318 light-years from Earth. It is about 1.5 times the size of Earth and holds 3.7 Earth masses. It completes an orbit every 6.34 days at 0.064 AU from its star, closer than Mercury is to the Sun.
Its equilibrium temperature is about 910 K (637 °C): far too hot for liquid water on its surface. By the "cosmic shoreline", its star has probably stripped its atmosphere away, leaving bare rock.
It was discovered in 2026 by transit with Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). A planet crosses its star and dims it by a tiny, periodic fraction. TOI-5788 has 2 known planets; the others are TOI-5788 c.
