Kepler-1211 and Its Neptune-like Planet
Kepler-1211 is a star located 5960 light-years away. It has one planet, Kepler-1211 b. The host star is 4.17 billion years old and contains 0.96 solar masses, with a radius of 0.94 solar radii and a temperature of 5710 K.
Kepler-1211 b is a Neptune-like planet discovered by transit in 2016. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness. The planet completes an orbit every 11 days and has a radius of 2.55 Earth radii, which is larger than Earth's radius.
