K2-386 b: A Super-Earth

K2-386 is a star located 1400 light-years away. It has a mass of 1.04 solar masses, a radius of 0.972 solar radii, and a temperature of 5790 K. One planet is known to orbit this star.

That planet is K2-386 b, a Super-Earth discovered by the transit method in 2022. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness. K2-386 b completes an orbit every 7.47 days. Its radius is 2.32 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. In size classification, a Super-Earth reaches 2.5 times Earth's radius.
