TOI-5595 b
TOI-5595 b is a Neptune-like planet orbiting TOI-5595 in the constellation Gemini. It lies about 447 light-years from Earth and was discovered in 2026 using the transit method.
How Big Is TOI-5595 b?
TOI-5595 b has a radius of 4.74 times that of Earth.
Is TOI-5595 b in the Habitable Zone?
The position of TOI-5595 b relative to the habitable zone of TOI-5595 cannot be precisely determined from the available orbital data.
Habitable zone of TOI-5595: 0.348–0.864 AU (conservative: 0.441–0.819 AU), per Kopparapu et al. (2014). Earth orbits the Sun at 1 AU.

Orbit and Year Length
A year on TOI-5595 b — one full orbit around TOI-5595 — lasts 5.99 Earth days, shorter than Mercury's 88-day year.
How Was TOI-5595 b Discovered?
TOI-5595 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-5595 b?
TOI-5595 b is 446.7 light-years (137.0 parsecs) from Earth. Light arriving here tonight left the planet around the year 1580. A probe traveling at the speed of Voyager 1 — about 17 km/s, the fastest outbound spacecraft ever launched — would need roughly 7,861,920 years to make the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions About TOI-5595 b
Is TOI-5595 b habitable?
TOI-5595 b is not known to orbit within the habitable zone of TOI-5595, and as a Neptune-like planet it is an unlikely candidate for life as we know it.
How far away is TOI-5595 b?
TOI-5595 b is about 447 light-years from Earth in the constellation Gemini. A spacecraft traveling as fast as Voyager 1 (about 17 km/s) would need roughly 7,861,920 years to get there.
How big is TOI-5595 b compared to Earth?
TOI-5595 b has 4.74 times the radius of Earth.
How long is a year on TOI-5595 b?
One orbit around TOI-5595 takes 6.0 Earth days — short enough that 61 of its years would fit into one Earth year.
