Kepler-380 c is an intriguing exoplanet orbiting the star Kepler-380, discovered back in 2014 by the Kepler space telescope using the transit method. This means scientists spotted it by noticing tiny dips in the star's brightness as the planet crossed in front. While it doesn’t have a fancy proper name yet, Kepler-380 c is part of a fascinating distant system far beyond our solar system. Orbiting its star in the vastness of space, it sparks curiosity about what such planets might be like up close—maybe a world of swirling clouds, exotic landscapes, or hidden oceans. Kepler's CCD array helped reveal this distant world, adding another chapter to our ever-growing cosmic story!
