Kepler-843 b: A Neptune-Like World in a Distant System
Kepler-843 is a star located 3800 light-years away. It has a mass of 1.02 solar masses and a radius of 1.03 solar radii. Its temperature is 5830 K, and it is 4.17 billion years old. One planet is known to orbit this host.
That planet, Kepler-843 b, is classified as Neptune-like. Its radius is 2.59 Earth radii. This reported radius estimate is larger than Earth's. The planet completes an orbit in 2.05 days. It was discovered in 2016 using the transit method, in which a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint and causes a small dip in observed brightness.
