HD 149143 b is a 2005 exoplanet that has a minimum mass (unknown inclination) of 1.33 Jupiter mass. Its orbital period is 0.35 megaseconds and the semimajor axis would be 7.94 gigameters. As it is tyical for a lot of hot Jupiters, its orbital eccentricity value is practically zero and has high semi-amplitude of 150 meters per second.
