K2-91 b is an intriguing exoplanet orbiting the star K2-91, spotted back in 2016 by the keen eyes of the Kepler Space Telescope's CCD Array during its K2 mission. This planet was discovered using the transit method, which means it reveals itself by passing in front of its host star and casting a tiny shadow detectable from Earth. While we don't have flashy details like a nickname or exact distance, K2-91 b is part of the fascinating K2 family of worlds that continue to teach us about distant planetary systems. Imagining this distant planet, caught in a cosmic dance with its star, invites us to dream about alien skies and the mysteries still waiting to be uncovered out there in the universe.
