TOI-1452 b is a confirmed super-Earth exoplanet, possibly a water world, orbiting a red-dwarf star TOI-1452 about 100 light-years away in the Draco constellation. [2] [3] The exoplanet is about 70% larger in diameter than Earth, and roughly five times as massive. [4]

Discovery

TOI-1452 b was discovered by an international team led by astronomers from the Université de Montréal, [5] [6] using data from NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite ( TESS). [1] [7] The discovery was first reported in June 2022. [1]
