TOI-5110 b is an exciting new exoplanet discovered in 2024 by the ever-watchful Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, or TESS, which spotted it as it passed in front of its star, TOI-5110. This space-based detective work means TOI-5110 b was uncovered thanks to the subtle dimming of its star’s light—a cosmic wink that signals a planet in transit. While we don’t have its exact address in light-years yet, this world offers a fresh playground for astronomers eager to learn more about distant worlds. It’s a bit like finding a new star in a vast cosmic neighborhood, and each discovery like TOI-5110 b brings us closer to understanding the incredible diversity of planets scattered across the galaxy.
