Kepler-1156 b: An Earth-Like World in a Distant System
Kepler-1156 is a single-star system located 2250 light-years away. Its host star is estimated to be 4.47 billion years old and contains 1 solar masses. The star has a radius of 1 solar radii and an effective temperature of 5780 K. Just one planet has been identified orbiting this star. That planet, Kepler-1156 b, was found by the transit method in 2016.
Kepler-1156 b is classified as Earth-like, meaning its radius stays within 1.5 times Earth's radius. Its radius measures 1.32 Earth radii, a size that exceeds Earth's. The planet completes an orbit every 11.9 days.
