Reading TOI-2267 d’s atmosphere

Dominant elements: H, O, Si, Fe, N, CThis is what a telescope would measure while TOI-2267 d crosses in front of its star: starlight passes through the atmosphere and spreads into a rainbow band. Each dark line marks a wavelength the atmosphere absorbed.Every element absorbs its own signature wavelengths — hydrogen always darkens the same two spots, calcium another pair, and so on. Astronomers match the lines in a real spectrum against a library of these signatures to say what an atmosphere is made of, light-years away, without ever visiting. A deeper line generally means more of that element is present.TOI-2267 d sits about 74 light-years away, found by the transit method. Most catalogued distances trace back to parallax: as Earth orbits the Sun, a nearby star appears to shift very slightly against the distant background stars, and the size of that shift gives its distance directly.

TOI-2267 d

BarrenExtremely Harsh74 light years awayFound 2025

TOI-2267 d, from the NASA Exoplanet Archive (found 2025). Measured: 3.78 Earth masses, 0.0145 AU, a 3022 K M-type star. Composition inferred from a measured bulk density of 0.68x Earth's at this size, suggesting roughly 47% water/ice by mass, with a day locked to its 2.0-day year, as anything orbiting this close would be.

Barren

No life — too hot for liquid waterMagnetic FieldHigh Activity
Why is this a Barren?Your planet has an unusual composition that doesn't fit standard classifications, or lacks the elements needed for complex geological processes.
Barren worlds can form from uncommon element combinations or may be remnants of larger bodies that lost their atmospheres and volatile materials.
Classification Criteria:
Composition doesn't match standard planet typesMass: 3.8x EarthTemperature: 474K

A binary star system's orrery: two suns close together, a red dashed dead-zone boundary, and a debris trail left by a destroyed world

New: Binary Star Systems 🌀

A system can now orbit two suns. Add a companion star when you build one — close, medium, or wide — and the physics decides what survives: a shared center of mass carves out a dead zone where gravity from both stars tears a world apart, leaving it as debris, and every surviving planet's orbit goes elliptical, moving fastest at closest approach and slowest out at aphelion. Push the separation to wide and the dead zone opens tens of AU across, wide enough to gut a system that would have been stable around one star alone. Stand on a world that made it through and you'll watch two suns cross the sky together.
