Meet KELT-24 b, a sizzling hot giant orbiting the star KELT-24, discovered back in 2019! This exoplanet was spotted using the trusty transit method, where it briefly dips in front of its star, giving astronomers a cosmic wink from millions of miles away. KELT-24 b is a gas giant that’s so close to its star, it’s likely basking in intense stellar rays, making it a fantastic example of a "hot Jupiter." Discovered with the help of ground-based telescopes equipped with the Apogee 4K CCD Sensor at the KELT-North survey, this planetary charmer continues to intrigue scientists and stargazers alike. If you’re dreaming of a world where the sun never sets on a giant ball of gas, KELT-24 b is the place to imagine!
