KOINTREAU-3 b is a fascinating exoplanet orbiting the star ISO-Oph 96, discovered not too long ago in 2026 using the sharp eyes of the W. M. Keck Observatory's NIRC2 Camera. This distant world was spotted through direct imaging—a bit like snapping a cosmic selfie from millions of miles away. Though it doesn’t have a fancy proper name yet, KOINTREAU-3 b already sparks curiosity as a new addition to our growing family of known exoplanets. Its discovery from the ground reminds us how our planet-bound telescopes can still reveal incredible secrets hidden in the depths of space. While details about its size or distance remain a mystery, KOINTREAU-3 b invites stargazers to dream about the diverse worlds out there just waiting to be explored.
