# HIP 21152 b

HIP 21152 b is a gas giant in the constellation [Taurus](https://spacecatalog.org/constellation/taurus), 141.6 ly from Earth. It orbits HIP 21152 at a mean distance of 17 AU. It has a mass of 24.00 M♃ and an estimated radius of 1.07 R♃ · 76 537 km. The radius is an estimate from the mass rather than a measurement. It was discovered in 2022.

## At a glance

- **WHAT IT IS:** Gas giant
- **HOW FAR:** 141.6 ly — The light arriving now left it that long ago.
- **HOW BIG:** 1.07 R♃ · 76 537 km — Its radius: half the width across.
- **WHERE TO LOOK:** [Taurus](https://spacecatalog.org/constellation/taurus) — The patch of sky it sits in, as seen from Earth.
- **ONE ORBIT TAKES:** 60.2 years — One trip round HIP 21152.

## Catalogue data

### WHAT KIND OF THING IT IS

What the object is in itself, rather than how it happens to look from here.

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Equilibrium temperature | 1300 K |
| Host star spectral type | F5 V |
| Host star temperature | 6655 ±125 K |
| Host star mass | 1.4 M☉ |
| Host star radius | 1.59186 +0.067 / −0.056 R☉ |

### HOW BRIGHT IT IS

What the light adds up to, measured through one filter at a time. A magnitude is a brightness on a backwards scale — the smaller the number, the brighter the object.

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Host star apparent magnitude (V) | 6.37 |

### THE ORBIT

The shape of the path, where the object sits on it, and the instant those figures were true of. An orbit is a fit to observations and drifts away from the real one either side of its epoch.

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Host star | HIP 21152 |
| Orbital period | 60.23 years +11000 / −5800 |
| Eccentricity | 0.36 +0.37 / −0.25 |
| Inclination | 95.3 +3.9 / −2.1° |
| Argument of periastron | 160 +160 / −130° |
| Periastron epoch | 2463360.0000 BJD |
| Transit midpoint | 2449000.0000 BJD |
| Stars in system | 2 |
| Planets in system | 1 |

### WHEN IT WAS FOUND

Who first saw it, from where, and by what method.
