WASP-12b is a hot Jupiter [6] (a class of extrasolar planets) orbiting the star WASP-12, discovered in April of 2008, by the SuperWASP planetary transit survey. [ 7 ] [ 1 ] The planet takes only a little over one Earth day to orbit its star, in contrast to about 365.25 days for the Earth to orbit the Sun .
WASP-12 is a magnitude 11 yellow dwarf star located approximately 1347 light-years away [2] in the constellation Auriga. [4] WASP-12 has a mass and radius similar to the Sun and is known for being orbited by a planet that is extremely hot and has a retrograde orbit around WASP-12. WASP-12 forms a triple star system with two red dwarf companions ...

WASP-178b, also known as KELT-26b and HD 134004 b, is an ultra-hot Jupiter exoplanet discovered in 2019 orbiting WASP-178, a hot A-type star located about 1,350 light-years (410 parsecs) away in the constellation of Lupus. At over 1.8 times the radius of Jupiter, it is among the largest exoplanets.
LHS 1140 b is an exoplanet orbiting within the conservative habitable zone of the red dwarf LHS 1140.Discovered in 2017 by the MEarth Project, [1] LHS 1140 b is about 5.6 times the mass of Earth and about 70% larger in radius, putting it within the super-Earth category of planets.
Its celestial coordinates are RA 05 h 16.2 m dec +34° 28′. [2] It is located near the emission nebula IC 410 , the open clusters M38 and M36 , and the K-class star Iota Aurigae . The nebula measures approximately 37.0' x 19.0', and lies about 1,500 light-years away from Earth . [ 2 ]
