Kepler-1637 and Its Lone Known World
Kepler-1637 is a star 1850 light-years away with one known planet in orbit. The host is 4.17 billion years old, holds 1.02 solar masses, spans 1.02 solar radii, and has a temperature of 5790 K. Its single planet, Kepler-1637 b, was found in 2016 by the transit method, in which a planet crosses in front of its star and causes a small dip in observed brightness.
Kepler-1637 b is a Sub-Earth, meaning its radius is smaller than Earth's. It measures 0.89 Earth radii and completes an orbit every 6.11 days. That orbital period is the time the planet takes to circle the star once.
