K2-217 and Its Neptune-Like Planet

K2-217 is a star 1250 light-years away with one known planet. The star has a mass of 1.1 solar masses and a radius of 1.33 solar radii, both larger than the Sun's, and a temperature of 5970 K, hotter than the Sun.

The planet K2-217 b is Neptune-like. It was discovered by transit in 2018, when it passed in front of its star from our viewpoint and caused a small dip in observed brightness. Its orbital period is 14.1 days and its radius is 3.58 Earth radii, larger than Earth's.
