TOI-7510 c
TOI-7510 c is a cold gas giant orbiting the G3 star TOI-7510 in the constellation Telescopium. It lies about 812 light-years from Earth and was discovered in 2025 using the transit method.
How Big Is TOI-7510 c?
TOI-7510 c has a radius of 10.81 times that of Earth, or 0.96 times the radius of Jupiter. Its mass is 131 times that of Earth, giving it a density of 0.57 g/cm³ — closer to gas planets like Jupiter (1.33 g/cm³).
Is TOI-7510 c in the Habitable Zone?
TOI-7510 c orbits inside the inner edge of the habitable zone of TOI-7510. So close to its star, surface conditions are far too hot for liquid water.
Habitable zone of TOI-7510: 0.763–1.800 AU (conservative: 0.966–1.707 AU), per Kopparapu et al. (2014). Earth orbits the Sun at 1 AU.

Temperature on TOI-7510 c
The equilibrium temperature of TOI-7510 c is about 702 K (429 °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-7510 c — one full orbit around TOI-7510 — lasts 22.6 Earth days, shorter than Mercury's 88-day year. It orbits at an average distance of 0.160 AU — closer to its star than Mercury is to the Sun. Its orbit is nearly circular (eccentricity 0.009).
How Was TOI-7510 c Discovered?
TOI-7510 c 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-7510 c?
TOI-7510 c is 812.1 light-years (249.0 parsecs) from Earth. Light arriving here tonight left the planet around the year 1214. A probe traveling at the speed of Voyager 1 — about 17 km/s, the fastest outbound spacecraft ever launched — would need roughly 14,292,960 years to make the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions About TOI-7510 c
Is TOI-7510 c habitable?
No — TOI-7510 c orbits too close to its star and is too hot for liquid water to exist on its surface.
How far away is TOI-7510 c?
TOI-7510 c is about 812 light-years from Earth in the constellation Telescopium. A spacecraft traveling as fast as Voyager 1 (about 17 km/s) would need roughly 14,292,960 years to get there.
How big is TOI-7510 c compared to Earth?
TOI-7510 c has 10.81 times the radius of Earth and about 131 times its mass.
How long is a year on TOI-7510 c?
One orbit around TOI-7510 takes 22.6 Earth days — short enough that 16 of its years would fit into one Earth year.
