LTT 3780 is a star with 0.4 times the mass of the Sun, and 0.37 times its radius. It is located 71.69 light years away from the solar system.
LTT 3780 is known to have 2 exoplanets in orbit around it.
LTT 3780 b was discovered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) observatory, in 2020-07, using the transit method. Its semi-major axis is 0.01 astronomical units, as compared to Earth's which is 1 astronomical unit. The mass of LTT 3780 b is 2.620 times the mass of Earth. The radius of LTT 3780 b is 1.332 that of Earth. At 2.620 Earth masses, LTT 3780 b is a so called Super Earth. Super Earths could be terrestrial worlds like Earth, but they could also be ocean worlds or terrestrial worlds wrapped in a substantial atmosphere, in which case some refer to them as Mini Neptunes. No Super Earths are known to exist in our solar system, but if it exists, the so-called Planet Nine could very well be a super Earth, as it is hypothesized to have a mass between five and ten Earth masses.
LTT 3780 c was discovered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) observatory, in 2020-07, using the transit method. Its semi-major axis is 0.08 astronomical units, as compared to Earth's which is 1 astronomical unit. The mass of LTT 3780 c is 8.605 times the mass of Earth. The radius of LTT 3780 c is 2.300 that of Earth. At more than 10 Earth masses, LTT 3780 c is an ice giant, a planet that is made up mostly of volatiles like water, amonia and methane, and enveloped by a dense hydrogen and helium atmosphere, much like Uranus and Neptune in our solar system.
