Kepler-1468 and Its Three Planets

Kepler-1468 is a star located 6190 light-years away. It is 3.55 billion years old and has a mass of 1.04 solar masses and a radius of 1.05 solar radii. Its temperature is 5890 K. Three planets are known to orbit this host.

Kepler-1468 c is an Earth-like planet discovered in 2016 by transit, the method of watching for the small dip in a star's brightness when a planet passes in front of it. It has an orbital period of 3.55 days and a radius of 1.15 Earth radii. Kepler-1468 b, a Super-Earth also found by transit in 2016, has an orbital period of 8.24 days and a radius of 1.73 Earth radii. Kepler-1468 d is a Neptune-like planet discovered by transit in 2021, with an orbital period of 19.6 days and a radius of 3.33 Earth radii.

Among these planets, Kepler-1468 c has the shortest year and the smallest radius, while Kepler-1468 d has the longest year and the largest radius. Kepler-1468 b has the second-shortest year and the second-smallest radius. Each planet's radius exceeds Earth's.
