Artists concept of extrasolar planet Tau Bootis b over a hypothetical moon
The extrasolar planet Tau Bootis b reigns over the airless, baked and battered terrain of a hypothetical moon.
Tau Bootis b orbits very close to Tau Bootis, a type F7V star about 50 light years from the Earth. Tau Bootis b is believed to have about four times the mass of the planet Jupiter and orbits around its sun at the astonishing pace of once every 3.3 days. Tau Bootis b is so close to its host sun that the force of the solar wind may be enough to constantly blow off the planets outer atmosphere

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an artist's concept of the mesmerizing extrasolar planet Tau Bootis b, reigning over a hypothetical moon. The airless and baked terrain of this moon is depicted as battered and rugged, evoking a sense of otherworldly beauty. Tau Bootis b orbits in close proximity to its host star, Tau Bootis, which belongs to the type F7V category and resides approximately 50 light years away from Earth. With a mass roughly four times that of Jupiter, this gas giant completes its orbit around its sun astonishingly fast - once every 3.3 days. The sheer proximity between Tau Bootis b and its scorching host star means that the forceful solar wind constantly blows off the outer atmosphere of this intriguing planet. This unique characteristic adds to the allure and mystery surrounding it. In this visually stunning artwork, we witness an expansive vista with a horizon stretching over land on this lunar surface. The landscape is dotted with steep slopes, cliffs, chasms, gullies, ravines, valleys, canyons - all showcasing rough terrains that captivate our imagination. As we delve into exogeology and astrogeology through planetary science exploration efforts like these images depict; discoveries about barren yet fascinating worlds such as Tau Bootis b continue to amaze us. Let your mind wander into realms beyond our own as you immerse yourself in this surreal representation of distant planets and their enigmatic moons.
