Exoplanet Radio Ep. 37: Osiris: The Exoplanet That Changed Everything

Hosted by Tony Darnell.


From  Oct 2, 2023.


The planet is HD 209458 b, and nicknamed "Osiris" after the
Egyptian god of the underworld. Osiris is a fitting nickname for
this planet, as it is a very hot and hostile world. HD 209458 b
orbits its star very closely, and its surface temperature is
estimated to be around 1,000 degrees Celsius. This makes it too
hot for liquid water to exist on its surface, and it is unlikely
to be habitable. Even so, this planet is remarkable in many
ways.  It occupies first place in a long list of discovery
milestones.
