TOI-3523 A b
TOI-3523 A b is a hot Jupiter orbiting TOI-3523 A in the constellation Cygnus. It lies about 2,105 light-years from Earth and was discovered in 2025 using the transit method.
How Big Is TOI-3523 A b?
TOI-3523 A b has a radius of 15.97 times that of Earth, or 1.43 times the radius of Jupiter. Its mass is 435 times that of Earth, giving it a density of 0.59 g/cm³ — closer to gas planets like Jupiter (1.33 g/cm³).
Is TOI-3523 A b in the Habitable Zone?
TOI-3523 A b orbits inside the inner edge of the habitable zone of TOI-3523 A. So close to its star, surface conditions are far too hot for liquid water.
Habitable zone of TOI-3523 A: 1.303–3.027 AU (conservative: 1.650–2.870 AU), per Kopparapu et al. (2014). Earth orbits the Sun at 1 AU.

Temperature on TOI-3523 A b
The equilibrium temperature of TOI-3523 A b is about 1,984 K (1,711 °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 2,590 times the stellar energy that Earth gets from the Sun.
Orbit and Year Length
A year on TOI-3523 A b — one full orbit around TOI-3523 A — lasts 2.30 Earth days, shorter than Mercury's 88-day year. It orbits at an average distance of 0.036 AU — closer to its star than Mercury is to the Sun. Its orbit is nearly circular (eccentricity 0.047).
How Was TOI-3523 A b Discovered?
TOI-3523 A b was discovered in 2025 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-3523 A b?
TOI-3523 A b is 2,104.7 light-years (645.3 parsecs) from Earth. Light arriving here tonight left the planet about 2,105 years ago. A probe traveling at the speed of Voyager 1 — about 17 km/s, the fastest outbound spacecraft ever launched — would need roughly 37,042,720 years to make the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions About TOI-3523 A b
Is TOI-3523 A b habitable?
No — TOI-3523 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-3523 A b?
TOI-3523 A b is about 2,105 light-years from Earth in the constellation Cygnus. A spacecraft traveling as fast as Voyager 1 (about 17 km/s) would need roughly 37,042,720 years to get there.
How big is TOI-3523 A b compared to Earth?
TOI-3523 A b has 15.97 times the radius of Earth and about 435 times its mass.
How long is a year on TOI-3523 A b?
One orbit around TOI-3523 A takes 2.3 Earth days — short enough that 158 of its years would fit into one Earth year.
