It was discovered in 2024 by Italian amateur astronomers Giuseppe Conzo and Mara Moriconi using the transit method with TESS data. At the beginning, a single transit event was identified, so the extrasolar planet was first classified as a candidate with TOI-6883.01 [1] nomenclature.
The most massive transiting exoplanet is KELT-1b which masses 27.23 M J (making it a brown dwarf) while the least massive is Kepler-42d which masses less than 0.003 M J or 0.9 M E. [2] The largest exoplanet known is HAT-P-32b which is 2.037 R J. The smallest exoplanet known is also Kepler-42d which is 0.051 R J or 0.57 R 🜨.

A potentially habitable exoplanet that is roughly similar in size to Earth has been found in a system located 40 light-years away, according to a new study.
Compare: As of 19 December 2024, there are 5,811 confirmed exoplanets in 4,340 planetary systems, with 973 systems having more than one planet. [ 2 ] ) The archive's data include published light curves, images, spectra and parameters, and time-series data from surveys that aim to discover transiting exoplanets.
The planet is located some 1,200 light-years away. A light-year is 5.8 trillion miles. It's the second-lightest exoplanet found so far based on its dimensions and mass, according to the researchers.
