WASP-62 is a single star about 575 light-years away. It is an F class main-sequence star, orbited by a planet, WASP-62b. The age of WASP-62 is much younger than the Sun at 0.8±0.6 billion years,[4] and it has a metal abundance similar to the Sun. WASP-62 was named "Naledi" in 2019.[5]

Planetary system


A transiting hot Jupiter exoplanet orbiting WASP-62 was discovered by WASP in 2012.[6] The planet's equilibrium temperature is 1440±30 K, but the measured average temperature is colder at 1329.6±44.8 K.[3] In 2020, a transmission spectrum indicated the atmosphere of WASP-62b is free of clouds. It contains sodium and possibly silicon hydrides.[7]

The planetary orbit is slightly misaligned to the equatorial plane of the star, with the misalignment angle equal to 19.4+5.1
−4.9°.[4]

WASP-62b was named "Krotoa" in 2019 by amateur astronomers from South Africa as part of the NameExoWorlds contest.[5]
