Astronomers from the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, Poland, have discovered a new exoplanet in the constellation Ursa Major.

According to data published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics, this exoplanet significantly exceeds the largest objects in the Solar System in mass. Its mass is 11 times greater than that of Jupiter, and it completes a full revolution around its star in 14 years.

The planet is located at a distance of six astronomical units from its star, and the temperature on its surface is about minus 100 degrees Celsius.

To make this discovery, scientists used the Doppler observation method, which records changes in the motion of a star under the influence of the gravity of planets. The research was carried out over several years using various telescopes.
