Description

Meet TOI-1853 b, one of the weirdest exoplanets ever discovered! It's about the size of Neptune, but four times more massive. It orbits its star so closely that it completes a full orbit in just 1.24 days. This makes it very hot, and it's located in a region of space known as the 'hot Neptune desert', where astronomers have been looking for Hot Neptunes but unable to find any.
