K2-185 c is a charming little exoplanet orbiting the star K2-185 in the K2 star system. Discovered back in 2018 using the transit method by the space-based Kepler telescope’s CCD array, this world reveals itself by gently dimming its host star's light as it passes in front. While we don't have a flashy proper name for it yet, K2-185 c invites stargazers and space enthusiasts to imagine a distant world bathed in the glow of its star, tucked away in the vast cosmic neighborhood surveyed by the K2 mission. It's a lovely example of the treasures that await us beyond our solar system, discovered by the persistent watchfulness of modern space telescopes.
