54 Piscium b (HD 3651 b), occasionally catalogued as 54 Piscium Ab to differentiate from the brown dwarf in the system, is an extrasolar planet approximately 36 light-years away in the constellation of Pisces. It was discovered orbiting the orange dwarf star 54 Piscium. Its minimum mass is one-fifth that of Jupiter, and it orbits the star in a very eccentric orbit about every two months.
