WASP-158 b is a sizzling hot gas giant orbiting the star WASP-158, discovered in 2018 by the SuperWASP-South survey using the trusty iKon-L CCD Camera. This exoplanet is a classic "hot Jupiter," meaning it’s a large, puffy planet that huddles extremely close to its star, making it far too toasty for any space tourists to cool off on. Detected through the transit method—watching it pass in front of its star and cause a tiny dip in brightness—WASP-158 b adds to the growing family of quirky worlds beyond our solar system. Though it doesn’t have a fancy proper name yet, it’s definitely a shining example of the cosmic wonders waiting to be explored out there!
