K2-193 b: A Neptune-Like World in a Distant System

K2-193 is a star located 1340 light-years from Earth. It has a mass of 1.01 solar masses, a radius of 0.98 solar radii, and a temperature of 5820 K. One known planet orbits this star.

That planet is K2-193 b, a Neptune-like world discovered in 2018 by the transit method, which detects the small dip in a star's brightness when a planet passes in front of it. K2-193 b completes an orbit every 14.8 days and has a radius of 3.95 Earth radii, a size estimate larger than Earth's. In the size classification used for planets, a Neptune-like radius reaches up to 4 times Earth's radius.
