Artwork of exoplanet HD 52265b C016 / 9815

HD 52265 is a G-type main sequence star approximately 92 light-years away in the constellation of Monoceros. It is 18% more massive and almost twice as luminous than our Sun. This artwork depicts the star, whose spin axis is highly inclined with respect to the line of sight from Earth, along with its exoplanet, called HD 52265b. The planet, which has almost exactly the same mass as Jupiter, orbits the star at a distance of 0.5 astronomical units with a period of just under 120 Earth days

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the mesmerizing exoplanet HD 52265b, orbiting its parent star HD 52265 in the constellation of Monoceros. The G-type main sequence star, located approximately 92 light-years away from Earth, shines with a brilliance nearly twice that of our Sun while boasting an impressive mass exceeding it by 18%. The artist's rendition beautifully captures the highly inclined spin axis of this distant star as it interacts with its celestial companion. Standing out against the backdrop of deep space, HD 52265b takes center stage with its striking resemblance to Jupiter in terms of mass. This gas giant gracefully orbits its host star at a distance equivalent to half an astronomical unit, completing each revolution in just under 120 Earth days. The intricate details depicted within this artwork allow us to marvel at both the cosmic dance between planet and star and the enigmatic nature of extrasolar worlds. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded once again of the vastness and diversity present within our universe. Credit: MARK GARLICK/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY
