WASP-126 b is a charming hot Jupiter orbiting the star WASP-126, discovered back in 2016 thanks to the clever transit method using the SuperWASP-South observatory’s iKon-L CCD camera. This bloated gas giant enjoys a close, toasty dance with its star, making it a scorcher compared to our own Jupiter. Although it doesn’t have an official proper name, WASP-126 b stands out with its puffed-up atmosphere, giving it a big, fluffy appearance in exoplanet terms. Spotted from Earth’s southern skies, it’s a delightful example of the diverse worlds out there, reminding us that even in the vast galaxy, some planets just love to bask in the stellar spotlight.
