Kepler-32b
Kepler-32b (alt. name KOI 952.01) is an extrasolar planet in orbit around its M-dwarf-type star in the Kepler-32 system, constellation of Cygnus.[1] Discovered by planetary transit methods with the Kepler space telescope in January 2012, it presents a semi-major axis of 0.0519 AU and temperature of 559.9 K. 2.2 Earth-radius, a mass of 4.1 MJ, and an orbital period of 5.9012 days.[1][2]

gollark: Strings should have lengths at the start, not be foolishly null terminated.
gollark: Although null terminated string bad.
gollark: In the hypothetical situation in which I misread your code, it was because I misread `*text == 0` as just checking if text was null.
gollark: I don't want to admit that I misread your code, so... I meant in general.
gollark: Also null pointer bad.
