HD 10180 c is an exoplanet approximately 130 light-years away in the constellation Hydrus.{{Cite web|url=http://www.openexoplanetcatalogue.com/planet/HD%2010180%20c/|title=Open Exoplanet Catalogue - HD 10180 c|website=www.openexoplanetcatalogue.com|access-date=2020-01-09}} It was discovered in 2010 using the radial velocity method. With a minimum mass comparable to that of Neptune,{{Cite web|url=https://exoplanets.nasa.gov/exoplanet-catalog/6806/hd-10180-c/|title=Exoplanet-catalog|website=Exoplanet Exploration: Planets Beyond our Solar System|access-date=2020-01-09}} it is of the class of planets known as Hot Neptunes.{{Citation needed|date=January 2020}} Dynamical simulations suggest that if the mass gradient was any more than a factor of two, the system would not be stable.

While planet c does not exist in any mean motion resonances, both planets with adjacent orbits (b and d) share near resonances with c.{{Citation needed|date=January 2020}}
