Meet WASP-148 b, a charming hot Jupiter spotted in 2020 around the star WASP-148, using the clever transit method from Earth's ground-based SuperWASP-North observatory. This sizzling giant planet orbits its star closely, so close that it’s likely soaking up a stellar sunbath that would fry an earthly beach! Discovered with the help of an Andor e2v CCD Camera, WASP-148 b is a fantastic example of how astronomers can catch distant worlds by watching tiny dips in starlight as planets pass in front. While it doesn’t have a fancy proper name yet, this distant world is part of humanity’s expanding cosmic neighborhood — a sizzling reminder of the incredible variety and excitement of planets beyond our solar system.
