Meet WASP-120 b, a sizzling hot exoplanet orbiting the star WASP-120, discovered back in 2016 thanks to the keen eyes of the SuperWASP team using their trusty iKon-L CCD Camera on Earth. This fiery world reveals itself by passing in front of its star, causing tiny dips in brightness that scientists cleverly detect—a method known as transit. WASP-120 b is a classic hot Jupiter, a gas giant that skims very close to its star, basking in intense stellar heat and sporting a face only a telescope could love. While it might not have a fancy proper name yet, WASP-120 b certainly earns its place among the galaxy’s fascinating exoplanets, inviting dreamers to imagine what it might be like to visit such a glowing world far beyond our solar system.
