Kepler-1243 b: A Super-Earth in Transit
Kepler-1243 is a star 2470 light-years away with one known planet. The host star is 4.37 billion years old, has 0.96 solar masses, a radius of 0.94 solar radii, and a temperature of 5670 K.
The planet Kepler-1243 b is a Super-Earth, a size class that reaches 2.5 times Earth's radius. It was discovered in 2016 by the transit method, in which a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint and causes a small dip in observed brightness. Its radius is 1.75 Earth radii, an estimate larger than Earth's. It completes an orbit every 16.8 days.
