K2-105 b is a fascinating exoplanet orbiting the star K2-105, discovered back in 2017 using the trusty Kepler space telescope's CCD array. This cosmic traveler was spotted as it gently passed in front of its star, casting a tiny shadow that gave away its presence—a method known as the transit technique. While we don't have its exact distance from Earth on hand, K2-105 b belongs to the intriguing K2 mission field, a treasure trove of distant worlds. As a result, it offers a glimpse into the vast diversity of planets beyond our solar system. Imagine a world orbiting a star far away, quietly going about its cosmic routine, inviting stargazers and dreamers alike to ponder what it might be like there!
