EPIC 228836835 b: A Close-Orbiting Earth-Like World
EPIC 228836835 is a star located 490 light-years away. It has a mass of 0.45 solar masses, a radius of 0.43 solar radii, and a temperature of 3560 K. The star's reported mass estimate is smaller than the Sun's, its reported radius estimate is smaller than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's. One planet orbits this host.
That planet, EPIC 228836835 b, was discovered in 2021 by the transit method, which detects the slight dimming of a star as a planet crosses in front of it from our viewpoint. It is classified as Earth-like, with a radius of 1.1 Earth radii, placing it within 1.5 times Earth's radius. It completes an orbit every 0.728 days.
