$NASA\'s planet-hunting spacecraft TESS has already confirmed a sub-Neptune planet with a 36-day orbit around its star. The planet orbits a K-dwarf star about 52 light years away, in the constellation Reticulum. This is the third confirmed exoplanet that TESS has found. The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is a two-year survey that will discover exoplanets in orbit around bright stars. (Photo/Agencies)$
