Kepler-703 and Its Jupiter-Like Planet
Kepler-703 is a star located 3770 light-years away, and it hosts one known planet. The star is estimated to be 2.69 billion years old, with a mass of 1.18 solar masses and a radius of 1.27 solar radii. Its temperature is 6190 K. Its mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, and its temperature is hotter than the Sun's.
The planet, Kepler-703 b, was discovered by transit in 2016. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness. The planet's orbital period is 4.58 days. Its radius is 8.2 Earth radii, and its size class is Jupiter-like, which means it exceeds 4 times Earth's radius. Its reported radius estimate is larger than Earth's.
