K2-404 and Its Neptune-Like Planet

K2-404 is a single-star system 397 light-years away. Its host is an M1 star with a mass of 0.552 solar masses and a radius of 0.552 solar radii, and a temperature of 3750 K. Its reported mass and radius estimates are smaller than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's.

One planet orbits this star. K2-404 b is a Neptune-like world discovered by transit in 2022. It completes an orbit every 13.1 days and has a radius of 2.53 Earth radii, larger than Earth's.
