AU Mic c
AU Mic c
AU Mic c is an exoplanet orbiting the star AU Mic, located about 31.9 light-years ( 9.8 pc) away from Solar System. Its discovery was publicly announced on 2020.
The host star AU Mic has apparent magnitude of 8.6, with absolute magnitude of 8.6. It is 0.5 times more massive and 0.8 times bigger compared with our Sun. The surface temperature is 3700 with its spectral types of M1V
In this planetary system, the extrasolar planet AU Mic c orbits around the star AU Mic every 18.9 days with its orbital distance of 0.14 AU ( 21198018.3 km)
