WASP-69 is a K-type main-sequence star. Its surface temperature is 4782±15 K. WASP-41 is slightly enriched in heavy elements compared to the Sun , with a metallicity Fe/H index of 0.10±0.01,[5] and is much younger than Sun at 2 billion years. The data regarding starspot activity of WASP-69 are inconclusive, but spot coverage may be very high.[6]

Multiplicity surveys did not detect any stellar companions to WASP-69 as of 2020.[7]

Planetary system

In 2013, one planet, named WASP-69b, was discovered on a tight, circular orbit.[2] Its equilibrium temperature is 886 K,[8] but measured terminator temperature is lower at 750 [[Kelvin|K].[6] at The planet is losing mass at moderate rate 0.5 ME per billion years.[8]

The planetary atmosphere is extremely hazy and contains a partial cloud deck with cloud tops rising to pressure of 100 Pa. Its composition is mostly hydrogen and helium, and sodium was also detected in low concentration.[6][9] The sodium may originate from volcanic moons, not from the planet itself.[10]
