HD 164922 e – a Neptune-like Exoplanet

HD 164922 e is an exoplanet that resembles Neptune and orbits a G-type star. This Exoplanet revolves around the star HD 164922, which is 72 light years away from the Sun. It has a mass of 10.52012 Earths, takes 41.8 days to complete one orbit around its star, and is 0.2292 AU away from it. It weighs about 10.5 Earth masses and orbits its star closer to the Sun than the Earth does. It was discovered in 2021 and announced.

HD 164922 e is an exoplanet that orbits the star HD 164922, which is located approximately 72.2 light-years (22.1 pc) from our Solar System. Its discovery was made public in 2021. HD 164922 has an apparent magnitude of 7.0 and an absolute magnitude of 5.3. It is 0.9 times more massive and 1.0 times bigger compared with our Sun. The surface temperature is 5293 with its spectral types of G9V.

HD 164922 is a seventh magnitude G-type main sequence star in the constellation Hercules. Binoculars or a telescope are required to see it because it is too faint to be seen with the naked eye. It is 72 light years away from the Earth. At 13.4 billion years old, it will soon evolve away from the main sequence and expand to become a red giant. It is one of the oldest known stars in the Universe, as well as one of the Milky Way’s most ancient multi-planetary systems.

The extrasolar planet HD 164922 e orbits the star HD 164922 every 41.8 days at an orbital distance of 0.23 AU in this planetary system. HD 164922 e is an exoplanet that orbits the star HD 164922, which is 72 light years away from the Sun. It weighs about 10.5 Earth masses and orbits its star closer to the Sun than the Earth does.

HD 164922 e is an extrasolar planet (exoplanet) orbiting the star HD 164922 in the Hercules constellation. Exoplanets are planets that orbit stars other than the Sun. According to the most recent parallax records, the star is 72.14 light years or 22.12 parsecs from Earth.

The planet’s orbital period, or year, is 41.763 days or 0.11 Earth years. By the end of a full year, the Earth will have completed 8.74 orbits around its star. HD 164922 is a G-type main-sequence star with a mass 87 percent that of the Sun and a radius 99 percent that of the Sun. It is 13.4 billion years old and has a temperature of 5293 K. The Sun, on the other hand, is approximately 4.6 billion years old and has a temperature of 5778 K.

The semi-major axis is the point in the orbit that is farthest from the star. The Earth orbits the Sun with a semi-major axis of just over 1 A.U. One A.U. is the average distance of the Earth from the Sun. The planet orbits its star at a closer distance than Mercury does to the Sun.
