Habitable zone

Star and planets drawn to scale: the star is 28 times as wide as TOI-4336 A c, so only its edge is in view. Orbits spaced as in the star system view.

TOI-4336 A c, from the NASA Exoplanet Archive (found 2026). Measured: 1.55 Earth masses, 0.0509 AU, a 3307 K M-type star. Composition inferred from a measured bulk density of 0.79x Earth's at this size, suggesting roughly 22% water/ice by mass, with a day locked to its 7.6-day year, as anything orbiting this close would be.

Surface. Rocky surface with impact craters, possible volcanic features

Rocky Terrestrial
Life unlikely — too hot for liquid waterModerate Activity
TOI-4336 A c is dominated by silicate (20.1%) and iron (10.3%) content, forming a rocky terrestrial body.
Rocky terrestrial planets are primarily composed of silicate rocks and metals. They're the most common type of small planet in the universe.
Classification Criteria:
✓ Silicon: 20.1% + Iron: 10.3% + Magnesium: 2.8%✓ Mass: 1.6x Earth (terrestrial range)

Reading TOI-4336 A c’s atmosphere

Dominant elements: O, Si, H, Fe, N, CThis is what a telescope would measure while TOI-4336 A c 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-4336 A c sits about 73 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.

New: Stand on Your Moons 🌒

A planet's surface view isn't the only ground any more. Press the surface button on a planet with moons and it asks where to stand: the planet itself, or any moon still in orbit, each tagged with what it became — ocean, ice, carbon, volcanic. Every moon gets its own ground and sky from its own physics: airless rock under a black sky, ice cracked by geysers over a hidden sea, sulfur plains shaking with eruptions, or orange haze you can't see the sun through. And hanging over the horizon, there's the planet you built.
