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.
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.
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 🜨. The densest transiting exoplanet known is CoRoT-3b, which has density of 26.4 g/cm 3; the diffusest transiting planet known is Kepler-12b, which has density of only 0.111 g/cm 3.
Observations from the European Space Agency’s Cheops space telescope, or Characterising ExOplanet Satellite, detected a “glory effect” on WASP-76b, an ultra-hot exoplanet 637 light-years ...
It was the third (and most recent) exoplanet to be discovered in orbit around this star; the other two, HD 63433 b and c, were discovered in 2020. [ 1 ] [ 4 ] Orbiting its star at a distance of 0.0503 astronomical units (7,520,000 km), HD 63433 d is the innermost planet orbiting HD 63433, and completes an orbit around it just every 4 days.

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.
