Kepler-1093 c is a fascinating exoplanet orbiting the star Kepler-1093, discovered back in 2016 thanks to the keen eyes of the Kepler Space Telescope. This distant world was spotted using the transit method, which means we caught it playfully passing in front of its star, causing a tiny dip in brightness. While we don't have a catchy proper name for it yet, Kepler-1093 c adds to the growing family of intriguing planets found in the Kepler field, a cosmic neighborhood full of surprises. Its discovery showcases the power of space-based observatories like Kepler’s CCD Array to expand our horizons and deepen our understanding of worlds beyond our solar system. Visiting Kepler-1093 c might require a very long spaceship ride, but dreaming about it is free!
