K2-132 b is a fascinating exoplanet orbiting the star K2-132, discovered back in 2017 thanks to the trusty Kepler space telescope’s keen eye as it watched for tiny dips in starlight. This planet falls into the exciting K2 mission’s catalog, a second chapter in Kepler’s quest to find distant worlds beyond our solar system. While we don’t have an official name for it yet, K2-132 b invites curiosity with its cosmic location and the method of discovery—transit—that’s all about catching a planet’s shadow as it passes in front of its star. Exploring K2-132 b gives us a glimpse into the diverse family of planets scattered across the galaxy, each one adding a bit more wonder to our universe.
