GJ 1132 c is a fascinating exoplanet orbiting the red dwarf star GJ 1132, discovered in 2018 using the clever radial velocity technique with the HARPS spectrograph at the La Silla Observatory. While it's a bit shy about revealing its exact size and composition, this world is part of a small but intriguing planetary system that has caught the eye of astronomers eager to study planets around cooler stars. Located in the southern skies, GJ 1132 c orbits its host star closely, where temperatures are likely far from Earth’s cozy range. Though it may not be the next vacation hotspot, its discovery adds a valuable piece to the cosmic puzzle of how diverse exoplanets can be, especially around humble red dwarfs like GJ 1132.
