Meet CoRoT-31 b, a sizzling hot Jupiter discovered in 2020 by the keen-eyed CoRoT mission using its trusty CCD Array. This exoplanet orbits its star, CoRoT-31, far beyond the reaches of our solar system, showcasing the incredible power of the transit method where a planet’s tiny shadow reveals its presence. CoRoT-31 b is a gas giant that’s probably puffed up and blistering close to its star, making it a cosmic hot spot and an exciting target for astronomers hunting for clues about planetary atmospheres and extreme weather. While it doesn’t have a snappy nickname yet, CoRoT-31 b is a shining example of how space-based telescopes keep expanding our planetary family far beyond the familiar stars we see at night.
