Meet CI Tau b, a youthful and daring hot Jupiter orbiting the vibrant young star CI Tau, tucked away in the Taurus constellation. Discovered in 2019 thanks to the clever “radial velocity” method harnessed by the IGRINS Spectrometer at multiple ground-based observatories, this exoplanet is a true cosmic sprinter, zipping close to its star with a blazing-hot atmosphere. Unlike many older gas giants, CI Tau b’s youthful energy hints at exciting weather patterns and dramatic storms brewing on its fiery surface. While it’s too far away for a cozy visit, CI Tau b offers astronomers an intriguing glimpse into early planetary systems, showing us what giant planets look like in their cosmic teenage years!
