Kepler-495 and Its Two Known Planets
Kepler-495 is a star 2150 light-years away with two planets known to orbit it. The host star is estimated to be 4.37 billion years old and has a mass of 0.86 solar masses, a radius of 0.83 solar radii, and a temperature of 5350 K. Its reported mass and radius estimates are smaller than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
Both planets were found by transit, the method in which a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint and causes a small dip in observed brightness; repeated dips help establish orbital periods. Kepler-495 b, discovered in 2016, is Jupiter-like, with an orbital period of 3.41 days and a radius of 5.23 Earth radii. Kepler-495 c, discovered in 2021, is Earth-like, with an orbital period of 5.9 days and a radius of 1.22 Earth radii. Both reported radius estimates are larger than Earth's. Among the listed planets, Kepler-495 b has the shortest year and the largest radius, while Kepler-495 c has the longest year and the smallest radius.
