TOI-5350 b
TOI-5350 b is a hot Jupiter orbiting TOI-5350 in the constellation Taurus. It lies about 905 light-years from Earth and was discovered in 2025 using the transit method.
How Big Is TOI-5350 b?
TOI-5350 b has a radius of 12.42 times that of Earth, or 1.11 times the radius of Jupiter. Its mass is 2,094 times that of Earth, giving it a density of 6.03 g/cm³ — comparable to rocky planets like Earth (5.51 g/cm³).
Is TOI-5350 b in the Habitable Zone?
TOI-5350 b orbits inside the inner edge of the habitable zone of TOI-5350. So close to its star, surface conditions are far too hot for liquid water.
Habitable zone of TOI-5350: 1.074–2.504 AU (conservative: 1.360–2.374 AU), per Kopparapu et al. (2014). Earth orbits the Sun at 1 AU.

Temperature on TOI-5350 b
The equilibrium temperature of TOI-5350 b is about 1,195 K (922 °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.
Orbit and Year Length
A year on TOI-5350 b — one full orbit around TOI-5350 — lasts 7.58 Earth days, shorter than Mercury's 88-day year. It orbits at an average distance of 0.080 AU — closer to its star than Mercury is to the Sun. Its orbit is nearly circular (eccentricity 0.017).
How Was TOI-5350 b Discovered?
TOI-5350 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-5350 b?
TOI-5350 b is 904.8 light-years (277.4 parsecs) from Earth. Light arriving here tonight left the planet around the year 1122. A probe traveling at the speed of Voyager 1 — about 17 km/s, the fastest outbound spacecraft ever launched — would need roughly 15,924,480 years to make the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions About TOI-5350 b
Is TOI-5350 b habitable?
No — TOI-5350 b orbits too close to its star and is too hot for liquid water to exist on its surface.
How far away is TOI-5350 b?
TOI-5350 b is about 905 light-years from Earth in the constellation Taurus. A spacecraft traveling as fast as Voyager 1 (about 17 km/s) would need roughly 15,924,480 years to get there.
How big is TOI-5350 b compared to Earth?
TOI-5350 b has 12.42 times the radius of Earth and about 2,094 times its mass.
How long is a year on TOI-5350 b?
One orbit around TOI-5350 takes 7.6 Earth days — short enough that 48 of its years would fit into one Earth year.
