Kepler-1512 and Its Earth-Like Planet
Kepler-1512 is a single star in the catalog, with one planet orbiting it. The star is 0.418 solar masses and 0.393 solar radii, both smaller than the Sun, and its temperature is 3480 K, cooler than the Sun. Its age is 1.6 billion years.
The planet Kepler-1512 b was discovered by transit in 2016. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, and repeated dips help establish orbital periods. It completes an orbit in 20.4 days and has a radius of 1.18 Earth radii, larger than Earth's and within the Earth-like size class that stays within 1.5 times Earth's radius.
