TOI-2392 b
TOI-2392 b is a mini-Neptune orbiting TOI-2392 in the constellation Dorado. It lies about 1,062 light-years from Earth and was discovered in 2026 using the transit method.
How Big Is TOI-2392 b?
TOI-2392 b has a radius of 2.37 times that of Earth.
Is TOI-2392 b in the Habitable Zone?
The position of TOI-2392 b relative to the habitable zone of TOI-2392 cannot be precisely determined from the available orbital data.
Habitable zone of TOI-2392: 1.504–3.506 AU (conservative: 1.905–3.324 AU), per Kopparapu et al. (2014). Earth orbits the Sun at 1 AU.

Orbit and Year Length
A year on TOI-2392 b — one full orbit around TOI-2392 — lasts 9.17 Earth days, shorter than Mercury's 88-day year.
How Was TOI-2392 b Discovered?
TOI-2392 b was discovered in 2026 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-2392 b?
TOI-2392 b is 1,062.0 light-years (325.6 parsecs) from Earth. Light arriving here tonight left the planet about 1,062 years ago. A probe traveling at the speed of Voyager 1 — about 17 km/s, the fastest outbound spacecraft ever launched — would need roughly 18,691,200 years to make the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions About TOI-2392 b
Is TOI-2392 b habitable?
TOI-2392 b is not known to orbit within the habitable zone of TOI-2392, and as a mini-Neptune it is an unlikely candidate for life as we know it.
How far away is TOI-2392 b?
TOI-2392 b is about 1,062 light-years from Earth in the constellation Dorado. A spacecraft traveling as fast as Voyager 1 (about 17 km/s) would need roughly 18,691,200 years to get there.
How big is TOI-2392 b compared to Earth?
TOI-2392 b has 2.37 times the radius of Earth.
How long is a year on TOI-2392 b?
One orbit around TOI-2392 takes 9.2 Earth days — short enough that 40 of its years would fit into one Earth year.
