Meet HD 15337 b, a fascinating exoplanet orbiting the star HD 15337. Discovered in 2019 thanks to the keen eyes of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), this world was spotted using the transit method—where the planet plays cosmic peekaboo by passing in front of its star and dimming its light ever so slightly. Although we don’t have a catchy proper name for it yet, HD 15337 b is a shining example of the wonders TESS uncovers from its vantage point in space. While its exact distance from Earth is a detail still reserved for the star charts, this little planet adds to the growing collection of intriguing worlds beyond our solar system, inviting us to imagine what alien skies might look like far away.
