HATS-36

Planetary system · 2793.3 light-years away

HATS-36 is 2,793 light-years from the Sun. The NASA Exoplanet Archive lists 1 planet around this G0 V star; the first was found in 2018 by transit (HATSouth).

Values are the NASA Exoplanet Archive’s composite parameters. A radius marked estimated comes from a mass–radius relation; a mass marked minimum is M sin i. Planet sizes and colours in the 3D view are renderings: none of these worlds has been photographed as more than a point of light.

The planets, compared

For a star of 5,950 K, 1.6 times as bright as the Sun, the habitable zone, where starlight could keep water liquid on a rocky surface, runs from about 1.20 to 2.12 AU. None of its known planets orbits inside it. The zone says how much starlight arrives, not whether a planet has water or air. The edges follow Kopparapu et al. (2014), as the 3D view draws them.

The light you see left 2,793 years ago, around 800 BC.
