SIMBADdata

TOI-561 is an old, metal-poor, Sun-like star, known to have multiple small planets.[3][2][4][5] It is an orange dwarf, estimated to be 10.5 billion years old, and about 79% the mass and 85% the radius of Sol, Earth's sun.[6][5]

In January 2021, a team led by Lauren Weiss of the University of Hawaii at Manoa announced that, using data from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, they had found a Super-Earth in a very close orbit, as well as two outer Sub-Neptunes.[7][8][6][3] The innermost planet, TOI-561 b, orbits in under one Earth day.[2][3] Another team led by Gaia Lacedelli of the University of Padua independently announced the discovery in a paper published in December 2020.[2] However, the two papers disagree on the structure of the system. While the innermost two planets were confirmed from TESS data by both papers, Weiss proposes only a single third planet in a 16.3-day orbit, while Lacedelli argues that the system instead contains two further planets, in wider orbits of 25.6 and 77 days.[2]
