HD 189733b, also known as "Hot Jupiter," is an exoplanet located approximately 63 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Vulpecula. It's one of the most well-studied exoplanets due to its proximity and distinctive characteristics. This gas giant orbits its parent star, HD 189733, at a close distance, completing an orbit in just over two Earth days.

What makes HD 189733b particularly intriguing is its deep azure color, which is caused by the scattering of blue light in its atmosphere. This exoplanet is a scorching world with surface temperatures reaching over 1,000 degrees Celsius (1,800 degrees Fahrenheit) due to its proximity to its host star. It's not a hospitable world for life as we know it, but its unique features make it a fascinating subject of study in the field of exoplanet research.
