Kepler-1623 b: An Earth-Like World
Kepler-1623 is a star 2730 light-years away with 1 planet in its system. The host star is 4.27 billion years old, has 1 solar mass, 1 solar radius, and a temperature of 5770 K.
The system's only known planet is Kepler-1623 b, discovered in 2016 by the transit method, which detects the small dip in starlight when a planet crosses in front of its star. Kepler-1623 b is classified as Earth-like, meaning its radius stays within 1.5 times Earth's. Its radius measures 1.31 Earth radii, larger than Earth's, and it completes an orbit in 4.36 days.
