Meet Hämarik, officially known as XO-4 b, a charming hot Jupiter orbiting the star XO-4. Discovered in 2010 from the ground at Lowell Observatory using the trusty PRISM CCD instrument, Hämarik was found as it neatly danced across its star, causing a subtle but telltale dip in brightness. This alien world sizzles under the close gaze of its star, basking in intense heat that keeps its atmosphere puffed up and lively. While it's far from the cozy embrace of our Sun, Hämarik’s orbit and glowing temperament make it a fascinating subject for astronomers peering across the cosmos. If you dream of exotic worlds with extreme climates and cosmic charm, Hämarik is the exoplanet to keep on your stargazing list!
