Gliese 341 b, also known as TOI-741 b, is a confirmed exoplanet orbiting Gliese 341, a red dwarf star located 33.9 light-years from Earth in the constellation Carina,[4] visually close to the False Cross asterism.
[1] It was discovered in 2024 via transit observations and analyzed by James Webb Space Telescope in the search for an atmosphere.
[1] Gliese 341 b was first identified in observations by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) as a candidate planet yet to be confirmed.
They observed three transits of the planet detected by the James Webb Space Telescope's Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) instrument.
[2][note 1] The star is about 48% the size of the Sun and 51% its mass, and has an effective temperature of 3800 K.[3] With an apparent magnitude of 9.5, it is not visible to the naked eye, but can be observed through a small telescope.
