Roque 12 b
Roque 12 b

  • Roque 12 b is an exoplanet orbiting the star Roque 12, located about 379.3 light-years (116.3 pc) away from Solar System. Its discovery was publicly announced on 2002.
  • The host star Roque 12 has apparent magnitude of 22.0, with absolute magnitude of 16.7.
  • It is 0.1 times more massive and 0.1 times bigger compared with our Sun. The surface temperature is 2900 with its spectral types of M7.5
  • In this planetary system, the extrasolar planet Roque 12 b orbits around the star Roque 12 every 70.0 days with its orbital distance of 0.13 AU ( 19467687.8 km)
  • (Projected orbit of Roque 12 b around its host star Roque 12)


  • The Star Roque 12 's habitable zone is located at the following distance
  • Inner Boundary (the orbital distance at Venus's Equivalent Radiation ) : 0.024 AU ( 3543214.6 km)
  • Earth Boundary (the orbital distance at Earth's Equivalent Radiation) : 0.033 AU ( 4897648.6 km)
