WASP-13, also known formally as Gloas, is a Sun-like star about 746.87 light-years away in the constellation Lynx. Its sole planet, Cruinlagh, is a gas giant larger than Jupiter but only half its mass, possibly indicating the absence of a planetary core at its interior. Both objects received their names from the second NameExoWorlds campaign in 2019
