Kepler-1252 and Its Super-Earth
Kepler-1252 is a star located 2120 light-years away, and it hosts one known planet. The star is 3.89 billion years old, has a mass of 1.06 solar masses, a radius of 1.09 solar radii, and a temperature of 5950 K. Solar masses and radii compare stellar mass and radius with the Sun, so these values place Kepler-1252 slightly above the Sun in both respects.
The planet, Kepler-1252 b, is classified as 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. Kepler-1252 b has an orbital period of 15.1 days, meaning it completes one orbit in that time. Its radius is 1.67 Earth radii, and its reported radius estimate is larger than Earth's.
