}}NGTS-1b is a confirmed hot Jupiter-sized extrasolar planet orbiting NGTS-1, a red dwarf star about half the mass and radius of the Sun, every 2.65 days.[2] The NGTS-1 system is about 600 light-years from Earth in the Columba constellation.[3][4][5]

Discovery

The exoplanet, NGTS-1b, was discovered by the Next-Generation Transit Survey.[4] Daniel Bayliss, of the University of Warwick, and lead author of the study describing the discovery of NGTS-1b, stated, "The discovery of NGTS-1b was a complete surprise to us—such massive planets were not thought to exist around such small stars – importantly, our challenge now is to find out how common these types of planets are in the Galaxy, and with the new Next-Generation Transit Survey facility we are well-placed to do just that."[5]

Characteristics

Mass, radius and temperature

NGTS-1b is a hot Jupiter-sized gas giant exoplanet that has a mass of 0.812 MJ and a radius of 1.33 RJ, where MJ and RJ are the mass and radius of Jupiter.[3][4]

Host star

The planet orbits an M0.5 dwarf star about half the mass ({{solar mass|0.617}}) and radius ({{solar radius|0.573}}) of the Sun.[4][1]

Orbit

NGTS-1b orbits about {{convert|4.5|e6km|e6mi|abbr=unit}} from the host star every 2.6473 Earth-days.[3][4][1][6]
