HIP 86221 is 96.2 light-years from the Sun. The NASA Exoplanet Archive lists 1 planet around this K5 V star; the first was found in 2021 by radial velocity (Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory).
Fly there in 3DHIP 86221 b goes round its star every 2.22 days, 40 times as often as Mercury goes round the Sun.

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.
