HAT-P-30, also known as WASP-51, is the primary of a binary star system about 679 light-years away in the constellation Hydra. It is a G-type main-sequence star. HAT-P-30 has a similar concentration of heavy elements compared to the Sun.
The faint stellar companion was detected in 2013 at a projected separation of 3.842±0.007″. [8]
In 2011 a transiting hot Jupiter planet, HAT-P-30b, was independently detected by two teams, the HATNet Project [9] and the Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP). [6]
The planetary orbit is strongly misaligned with the equatorial plane of the star, the misalignment angle being equal to 73.5±9.0°. [9]
Since 2022, an additional planet in the system is suspected based on transit timing variations. [5]
