EPIC 212424622 b: A Super-Earth in Transit
EPIC 212424622 is a star located 2000 light-years away with a single known planet, EPIC 212424622 b. The host star has a mass of 1.08 solar masses, a radius of 1.22 solar radii, and a temperature of 5920 K. Its radius is larger than the Sun's, and its temperature is hotter than the Sun's.
EPIC 212424622 b was discovered in 2019 by the transit method, in which a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint and causes a small dip in observed brightness; repeated dips help establish orbital periods. The planet completes an orbit every 18.1 days and has a radius of 2.17 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. It is classified as a Super-Earth, a size class that reaches 2.5 times Earth's radius.
