Most known exoplanets orbit closely around their stars, but the MIT-led TESS mission has discovered a rare system containing two planets with much more distant orbits, one of which has the longest orbital period that TESS has detected to date. The planets are circling TOI-4600, a nearby star that is 815 light years from Earth.
