KPS-1 b is a fascinating exoplanet orbiting the star KPS-1, discovered back in 2018 by the clever eyes at the Acton Sky Portal Observatory. This distant world was found using the transit method, which means astronomers spotted it as it cleverly passed in front of its host star, casting a tiny shadow. Captured with the trusty SBIG ST-8300M camera, KPS-1 b offers a glimpse into the exciting realm of ground-based exoplanet hunting. While it doesn't yet have a fancy IAU proper name, this little cosmic traveler sparks curiosity about what other secrets nearby stars might be keeping. It’s one more step in our quest to understand the vast, star-studded neighborhood beyond our own solar backyard.
