# The HD 63935 system

HD 63935 is a G5 yellow star in Canis Minor, 158.6 ly away, with 2 known planets. Their orbits run from 0.0830 to 0.148 AU. All but one were detected by transit.

## The planets, innermost first

| Planet | Orbit (AU) | Period | Radius | Mass | Equilibrium T |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [b](https://spacecatalog.org/object/hd-63935-b) | 0.0830 | 9.059 d | 2.92 R⊕ | 10.5 M⊕ | 825 K |

Every figure is the planet's composite parameter from the [NASA Exoplanet Archive (Planetary Systems Composite Parameters)](https://exoplanetarchive.ipac.caltech.edu/cgi-bin/TblView/nph-tblView?app=ExoTbls&config=PSCompPars), one consistent set per world. Semi-major axes are orbits about the star, not distances from Earth.
