TOI-2583 A b
TOI-2583 A b is a hot Jupiter orbiting TOI-2583 A in the constellation Hercules. It lies about 1,847 light-years from Earth and was discovered in 2023 using the transit method.
How Big Is TOI-2583 A b?
TOI-2583 A b has a radius of 14.46 times that of Earth, or 1.29 times the radius of Jupiter. Its mass is 79.5 times that of Earth, giving it a density of 0.14 g/cm³ — closer to gas planets like Jupiter (1.33 g/cm³).
Is TOI-2583 A b in the Habitable Zone?
TOI-2583 A b orbits inside the inner edge of the habitable zone of TOI-2583 A. So close to its star, surface conditions are far too hot for liquid water.
Habitable zone of TOI-2583 A: 1.162–2.727 AU (conservative: 1.472–2.586 AU), per Kopparapu et al. (2014). Earth orbits the Sun at 1 AU.

Temperature on TOI-2583 A b
The equilibrium temperature of TOI-2583 A b is about 1,456 K (1,183 °C) — hot enough to melt many metals. This estimate ignores any atmosphere, which could change surface temperatures dramatically — Earth's greenhouse effect adds about 33 °C. It receives 751 times the stellar energy that Earth gets from the Sun.
Orbit and Year Length
A year on TOI-2583 A b — one full orbit around TOI-2583 A — lasts 4.52 Earth days, shorter than Mercury's 88-day year. It orbits at an average distance of 0.057 AU — closer to its star than Mercury is to the Sun.
How Was TOI-2583 A b Discovered?
TOI-2583 A b was discovered in 2023 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-2583 A b?
TOI-2583 A b is 1,846.7 light-years (566.2 parsecs) from Earth. Light arriving here tonight left the planet about 1,847 years ago. A probe traveling at the speed of Voyager 1 — about 17 km/s, the fastest outbound spacecraft ever launched — would need roughly 32,501,920 years to make the journey.
Earth Similarity Index
The Earth Similarity Index (ESI) scores how physically similar a planet is to Earth, from 0 to 1, based on radius, density, escape velocity and surface temperature. TOI-2583 A b scores 0.06, ranking #5,080 of 5,568 planets with a known ESI. For reference, Mars scores about 0.70.

Frequently Asked Questions About TOI-2583 A b
Is TOI-2583 A b habitable?
No — TOI-2583 A b orbits too close to its star and is too hot for liquid water to exist on its surface.
How far away is TOI-2583 A b?
TOI-2583 A b is about 1,847 light-years from Earth in the constellation Hercules. A spacecraft traveling as fast as Voyager 1 (about 17 km/s) would need roughly 32,501,920 years to get there.
How big is TOI-2583 A b compared to Earth?
TOI-2583 A b has 14.46 times the radius of Earth and about 79.5 times its mass.
How long is a year on TOI-2583 A b?
One orbit around TOI-2583 A takes 4.5 Earth days — short enough that 81 of its years would fit into one Earth year.
