names = HD 134987 b23 Librae b (23 Lib b) is an extrasolar
jovian planet discovered in 1999 orbiting the star 23 Librae. It orbits in its star'shabitable zone , with temperatures similar toVenus .As of 2000, the planet was known to have at least 1.6 times, and may have as much as 34 times,
Jupiter 's mass, suggesting it may be an extremely dimbrown dwarf star. The planet orbits 23 Librae at an average distance of 0.81 AUs, which is between that ofVenus andthe Earth in theSolar System .References
