WASP-67 is a K-type main-sequence star about 620 light-years away. The stars age is poorly constrained, but is likely older than the Sun`s at approximately 8.7+5.5
−8.6 billion years (ie. somewhere between 100 million years and the age of the universe).[2] WASP-67 is slightly depleted in heavy elements, having 85% of the solar abundance of iron.[3]
A multiplicity survey in 2016 has found one candidate stellar companion to WASP-67 at a projected separation of 4.422″±0.018″.[6] Nonetheless, follow-up observations in 2017 failed to find any bound stellar companions.[7]
Planetary system
[edit]In 2012 a transiting hot Jupiter planet b was detected on a tight, circular orbit.[4] Its equilibrium temperature is 1050 K.[8]
The planetary atmosphere contains water, and a cloud layer is located higher than in the similar gas giant HAT-P-38b, indicating a high planetary metallicity.[8]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
