KELT-23 A b is a sizzling hot world orbiting the star KELT-23 A, discovered in 2019 using a ground-based telescope equipped with an Apogee 4K CCD Sensor. This exoplanet is a classic "hot Jupiter," a gas giant that hugs its star so closely it completes its orbit in just a few days, making it a fiery and fast-paced neighbor. Thanks to the transit method, astronomers spotted this planet as it winked in front of its star, causing a tiny but telltale dip in brightness. While it's too hot and close for life as we know it, KELT-23 A b offers a fascinating glimpse into the extremes of planetary systems far beyond our own!
