Kepler-248 and Its Two Known Planets

Kepler-248 is a star located 2410 light-years away, and it hosts two planets. The star is 2.34 billion years old and has a mass of 0.9 solar masses, a radius of 0.82 solar radii, and a temperature of 5180 K.

Both planets were discovered by transit in 2014. Kepler-248 b is Neptune-like, with a radius of 3.02 Earth radii and an orbital period of 6.31 days. Kepler-248 c is Jupiter-like, with a radius of 4.07 Earth radii and an orbital period of 16.2 days.

Among the listed planets, Kepler-248 b has the shortest year by reported estimates, and Kepler-248 c has the longest. Kepler-248 b also has the smallest radius, while Kepler-248 c has the largest; both radii are larger than Earth's.
