WASP-68 b is a sizzling hot giant exoplanet that orbits the star WASP-68, discovered back in 2014 thanks to the clever transit method with the help of the SuperWASP project and its trusty iKon-L CCD Camera. This cosmic neighbor is a puffed-up gas giant, a bit like a celestial balloon dancing dangerously close to its star. It’s a world where temperatures soar, and the skies would be far too fiery for a vacation. While it’s not the kind of place you’d pack a suitcase for, WASP-68 b offers astronomers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of planets that thrive in extreme conditions. Certainly a starry hot spot in the exoplanet lineup!
