WASP-96 is a G8-type star, located approximately 1140 light-years from Earth in the constellation of Phoenix. It is known to host at least one exoplanet, WASP-96b. It was discovered in 2013 by the Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP), utilising the transit method. [2]

2024年10月24日 · WASP-96 b is a gas giant exoplanet that orbits a G-type star. Its mass is 0.48 Jupiters, it takes 3.4 days to complete one orbit of its star, and is 0.0453 AU from its star. Its discovery was announced in 2014.

WASP-96b is a gas giant exoplanet. Its mass is 0.48 times that of Jupiter. It is 0.0453 AU from the class G star WASP-96, which it orbits every 3.4 days. It is about 1,140 light-years away from Earth, in the constellation Phoenix. It was discovered in 2013 by the Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP).

2022年7月12日 · WASP-96 b orbits extremely close to its Sun-like star, just one-ninth of the distance between Mercury and the Sun, completing one circuit every 3½ Earth-days. The combination of large size, short orbital period, puffy atmosphere, and lack of contaminating light from objects nearby in the sky makes WASP-96 b an ideal target for atmospheric ...

2024年10月26日 · WASP-96 b is a hot gas giant exoplanet that orbits a Sun-like star roughly 1,150 light-years away, in the constellation Phoenix. The planet orbits extremely close to its star (less than 1/20th the distance between Earth and the Sun) and completes one orbit in …

WASP-96 b是银河系之中已经确认的5000余颗太阳系外行星之一，它位于距离地球1150光年之外的凤凰座，虽然该星已经确认为一颗半个木星质量的气态巨行星，不可能拥有与地球类似的生命，但是韦伯望远镜通过该图像展示了其优秀的系外行星大气层光谱分析能力。

NASA’s Webb Telescope observed the atmospheric characteristics of the hot gas giant exoplanet WASP-96 b — which contains clear signatures of water — and the resulting transmission spectrum’s individual data points were translated into sound. The sonification scans the spectrum from left to right.

2022年7月23日 · WASP-96 is a yellow dwarf located about 1,160 light-years away in the constellation Phoenix. Shining at magnitude 12.2, it is invisible to the unaided eye. The Sun-like star hosts at least one exoplanet, WASP-96b, discovered in 2013. In 2022, the planet was one of the first targets of NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Star type
