Second exoplanet discovered around star TOI 2134
Star system: TOI 2134 | Distance from the Sun: 73.9 light years
A temperate, highly eccentric sub-Saturn has been discovered orbiting the bright K-dwarf TOI-2134, in addition to an inner mini-Neptune that was discovered three years ago. The outer planet has a radius of 7.27 R⊕ and a mass of 41.86 M⊕, and a high eccentricity of 0.67, positioning it in the habitable zone of its system for part of its orbit. Further observations are needed to fully constrain the orbit of the outer planet and to study the spin-orbit architecture of the system.
