TIC 279401253 is a Sun-like G-type star (about 1.13 solar masses, 5,951 K, 1.06 solar radii), 286 light-years from Earth. TIC 279401253 b is a 6.14-Jupiter-mass companion, with an orbital period of 76.8 days, at 0.369 AU from its star, on an eccentric orbit (e ≈ 0.45), discovered in 2023 via transit. TIC 279401253 c is a 8.02-Jupiter-mass companion, with an orbital period of 155 days, at 0.591 AU from its star, on an eccentric orbit (e ≈ 0.25), discovered in 2023 via transit. Mutual gravitational tugs between the planets can slowly reshape their orbits, preserving clues to the system's assembly.
