WASP-96 is a G8-type star, located approximately 1140 light-years from Earth in the constellation of Phoenix.

It is known to host at least one exoplanet, WASP-96b. It was discovered in 2013 by the Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP), utilising the transit method.

In July 2022, NASA announced that a spectrum of the planet would be featured in the initial science release from the James Webb Space Telescope.{{Cite web

Observations from the James Webb Space Telescope show that WASP-96b displays a distinct signature of water, along with evidence for clouds and haze in its spectrum,{{Cite web |title=Webb Reveals Steamy Atmosphere of Distant Planet in Exquisite Detail |url=https://webbtelescope.org/contents/news-releases/2022/news-2022-032 |access-date=2022-07-12 |website=WebbTelescope.org |language=en}} in contrast to what was previously believed to be an entirely cloudless atmosphere.{{Cite web |first=Amber |last=Jorgenson |date=May 8, 2018 |title=WASP-96b: the cloudless exoplanet |url=https://astronomy.com/news/2018/05/the-cloudless-exoplanet |access-date=2022-07-12 |website=Astronomy.com |language=en}}
