:INFO Terrestrial around GJ 367 It is 0.74 times Earth's radius, closest in size to Venus, and 0.5 times Earth's mass, at 6.90 g/cm3, denser than Earth. A year there lasts 7.7 hours. Its equilibrium temperature is 1329 K, hot enough to melt lead. The host star GJ 367 runs at 3535 K with 0.45 times the Sun's mass. :COUNTER 7.7 hours: one full year, start to finish :STATS [icon:TARGET] Radius | 0.74 Earth radii [icon:CHART] Mass | 0.5 Earth masses [icon:FIRE] Equilibrium temperature | 1329 K (measured) [icon:CLOCK] One year | 7.7 hours [icon:STAR] Host star | GJ 367 at 3535 K [icon:USERS] Distance | 31 light-years [icon:TRENDING_DOWN] Starlight blocked | 0.022% at each transit :CHECKLIST Known and unknown, as the archive has it [ ] A size. Yes. [ ] A weight, not just a width. Yes. [ ] A density, the one clue to composition. Yes. [ ] A semi-major axis. No. [ ] A temperature someone observed rather than calculated. Yes. [ ] An eccentricity, so the orbit shape is known. Yes. :PATH What the transit gives The depth of the dip is the ratio of the two discs, so the radius follows. :NOTE The size came from a crossing, the mass did not. That pairing is uncommon and it is what lets anyone say whether this is rock or gas. :NOTE GJ 367 has 3 known planets. Systems like this are the ones where architecture can be studied instead of guessed at. :NOTE Found by Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) in 2021. TESS scans most of the sky in 27-day stretches, so it favours bright nearby stars and short orbits over the faint distant ones Kepler specialised in. :LINK https://exoplanetarchive.ipac.caltech.edu/overview/GJ%20367%20b NASA Exoplanet Archive: every published measurement of this planet
