It is found in the night sky orbiting the star Gliese 15 A, which is at right ascension 00h 18m 22.89s and declination +44° 01′ 22.6″.
[2] It was discovered in August 2014,[3] deduced from analysis of the radial velocities of the parent star by the Eta-Earth Survey using HIRES at Keck Observatory.
However, researches using the CARMENES spectrograph failed to detect the planet in 2017.
[4] The detection of planet was recovered in 2018, with revised minimum mass of 3.03 ME.
It orbits too close to Gliese 15 A to be located in the habitable zone and is unlikely to harbour life.
