WASP-1 is ametal-richmagnitude 12star located about 1,250light-years away[2] in theAndromedaconstellation.[6]
In 2006, anextrasolar planet was discovered by theWide Angle Search for Planets team using thetransit method.[4] The planet has a density of 0.31 to 0.40 g/cm3, making it about half as dense as Saturn, and one third as dense as water. The orbit ofWASP-1b is inclined to rotational axis of the star by 79.0+4.3
−4.5 degrees, making it a nearly "polar" orbit.[7]
Two searches for additional planets usingtransit-timing variations have yielded negative results.[8][9]
