GJ 367

Planetary system · 30.7 light-years away · also HIP 47780

GJ 367 is 30.7 light-years from the Sun. The NASA Exoplanet Archive lists 3 planets around this M V star; the first was found in 2021 by transit (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS)).

Worth knowing

GJ 367 b goes round its star every 7.7 hours, 273 times as often as Mercury goes round the Sun.

Where the archive gives only a period or only an orbit size, the other is worked out from Kepler’s third law with the star’s mass.

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.
