TOI-1184 b
TOI-1184 b is a mini-Neptune orbiting TOI-1184 in the constellation Draco. It lies about 191 light-years from Earth and was discovered in 2024 using the transit method.
How Big Is TOI-1184 b?
TOI-1184 b has a radius of 2.39 times that of Earth.
Is TOI-1184 b in the Habitable Zone?
TOI-1184 b orbits inside the inner edge of the habitable zone of TOI-1184. So close to its star, surface conditions are far too hot for liquid water.
Habitable zone of TOI-1184: 0.339–0.837 AU (conservative: 0.430–0.794 AU), per Kopparapu et al. (2014). Earth orbits the Sun at 1 AU.

Temperature on TOI-1184 b
TOI-1184 b receives 57.54 times the stellar energy that Earth gets from the Sun.
Orbit and Year Length
A year on TOI-1184 b — one full orbit around TOI-1184 — lasts 5.75 Earth days, shorter than Mercury's 88-day year. It orbits at an average distance of 0.056 AU — closer to its star than Mercury is to the Sun.
How Was TOI-1184 b Discovered?
TOI-1184 b was discovered in 2024 using the transit method, with observations from Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS).
The transit method watches a star for the tiny, regular dip in brightness that occurs when a planet crosses in front of it. The depth and timing of these dips reveal the planet's size and orbital period.
How Far Away Is TOI-1184 b?
TOI-1184 b is 191.1 light-years (58.6 parsecs) from Earth. Light arriving here tonight left the planet around the year 1835. A probe traveling at the speed of Voyager 1 — about 17 km/s, the fastest outbound spacecraft ever launched — would need roughly 3,363,360 years to make the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions About TOI-1184 b
Is TOI-1184 b habitable?
No — TOI-1184 b orbits too close to its star and is too hot for liquid water to exist on its surface.
How far away is TOI-1184 b?
TOI-1184 b is about 191 light-years from Earth in the constellation Draco. A spacecraft traveling as fast as Voyager 1 (about 17 km/s) would need roughly 3,363,360 years to get there.
How big is TOI-1184 b compared to Earth?
TOI-1184 b has 2.39 times the radius of Earth.
How long is a year on TOI-1184 b?
One orbit around TOI-1184 takes 5.7 Earth days — short enough that 64 of its years would fit into one Earth year.
