Say hello to NGTS-18 b, a sizzling exoplanet discovered in 2021 by the clever team behind the Next-Generation Transit Survey (NGTS). Orbiting the star NGTS-18, this fiery world was spotted using the transit method, which is a fancy way of saying it crosses in front of its star and takes a tiny bite out of its light—perfect for planet-hunters. Though it might not have a fancy proper name yet, NGTS-18 b shines as a charming new addition to our cosmic family. This planet orbits close to its star, likely roasting under intense heat, making it a fascinating target for astronomers eager to understand these distant, blazing worlds. Keep an eye on NGTS-18 b—it’s a starry wonder straight from the ground-based NGTS survey!
