Kepler-1422 and Its Super-Earth
Kepler-1422 is a star 8040 light-years away with one known planet in its system. The star is 3.02 billion years old and has a mass of 1.15 solar masses, a radius of 1.23 solar radii, and a temperature of 6190 K.
The star's reported mass estimate is larger than the Sun's, and its reported radius estimate is also larger than the Sun's. Its reported temperature is hotter than the Sun's.
Kepler-1422 b is a Super-Earth discovered by the transit method 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 has an orbital period of 18.6 days and a radius of 2.02 Earth radii. Its reported radius estimate is larger than Earth's.
