**TOI-672 b** is a Neptune-like exoplanet, located 218 [light-years](/source/Light-years) away. The exoplanet was discovered in the year 2023.

## Characteristics

### Mass and radius

TOI-672 b was discovered by the [transit](/source/Astronomical_transit) method. Its mass is 0.0760 [*M*J](/source/Jupiter_mass) or 24.1 [*M*🜨](/source/Earth_mass). The exoplanet currently has a radius of 0.470+0.008 −0.009 [*R*J](/source/Jupiter_radius) or 5.26+0.08 −0.10 [*R*🜨](/source/Earth_radius).[2]

### Orbit

TOI-672 b has a smaller [orbital period](/source/Orbital_period) than [Mercury](/source/Mercury_(planet)). The exoplanet has an orbital period of 3.6 [days](/source/Days), just like [Kepler-444 b](/source/Kepler-444#Planetary_system) and has an inclination of 8.43±0.82 [Degree (angle)](/source/Degree_(angle)).

## Host star

The host star of the exoplanet is TOI-672.

The host star is a [M-type star](/source/M-type_star) and is not visible to the [naked eye](/source/Naked_eye) from [Earth](/source/Earth). The star has a mass of 0.54±0.02 [*M*☉](/source/Solar_mass), a radius of 0.544±0.0163 [*R*☉](/source/Solar_radius) and a temperature of 3765±65 [Kelvin](/source/Kelvin).
