CoRoT-9 is 1,347 light-years from the Sun. The NASA Exoplanet Archive lists 1 planet around this G3 V star; the first was found in 2009 by transit (CoRoT).
Fly there in 3DCoRoT-9 b takes 95.3 days to go round its star once.
CoRoT-9 is one of 2 stars in its system. The position of the other star is not catalogued, so only CoRoT-9 and its planets are drawn.

Values are the NASA Exoplanet Archive’s composite parameters. A radius marked estimated comes from a mass–radius relation; a mass marked minimum is M sin i. Planet sizes and colours in the 3D view are renderings: none of these worlds has been photographed as more than a point of light.
