| Planet | Orbital period | Distance from star | Radius (Earths) | Mass (Earths) | Found | Method |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HD 72659 b | 9.717 years | 4.607 AU | at least 906.1 | 2002 | Radial Velocity | |
| HD 72659 c | 97.19 years | 21.5 AU | 6,166 | 2022 | Radial Velocity |
"At least" is a minimum mass. Radial velocity can only measure mass times the sine of the orbit's tilt.
