TOI-5076 is 270 light-years from the Sun. The NASA Exoplanet Archive lists 1 planet around this K2 V star; the first was found in 2024 by transit (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS)).
Fly there in 3DTOI-5076 b goes round its star every 23.4 days, 4 times as often as Mercury goes round the Sun.
TOI-5076 is one of 2 stars in its system: the other is drawn where the Washington Double Star Catalog measures it on the sky.
| Spectral type | K2 V |
| Surface temperature | 4,780 K |
| Mass | 0.789 solar masses |
| Radius | 0.844 solar radii |
| Luminosity | 0.336 times the Sun |
| Apparent magnitude | 10.9 |
| Age | about 8.4 billion years |
| Distance from the Sun | 270.2 light-years (82.9 parsecs) |
| Position (J2000) | RA 50.5104°, Dec 17.2392° |

TOI-5076 B has no spectral type listed of magnitude 17.56, judged a true companion. In 2016 it was 26″ from TOI-5076, at position angle 330° (Washington Double Star Catalog, 03220+1715 LDS3483): 2,154 AU on the sky at this distance. The true distance can only be larger. Its colour is estimated from its brightness.
| Planet | Year | Orbit | Radius | Mass | Found |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TOI-5076 b | 23.4 days | 0.148 AU | 3.4894 R⊕ | 16.146 M⊕ | Transit, 2024 |
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.
For a star of 4,780 K, 0.34 times as bright as the Sun, the habitable zone, where starlight could keep water liquid on a rocky surface, runs from about 0.58 to 1.06 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 270 years ago, around 1760.
