Diya, the Star with an ID Card
An interactive dossier tracing the officially named star Diya, also catalogued as WASP-72, and its overheated planet Cuptor.
Field notes
The dossier moves from catalogue identity to observational evidence, using survey frames, wide-field maps, and finder charts rather than decorative space imagery. It explains the transit method as a measurable dip in Diya’s brightness when Cuptor crosses the star, and records Cuptor’s 0.03711-AU orbit, approximately 1.29-Jupiter radius, and 2.3-Jupiter mass. Source links point readers toward SIMBAD, the DESI Legacy Survey Viewer, NASA SkyView, and related archive material.
