Kepler-1244 and Its Earth-Like Planet
Kepler-1244 is a star located 3510 light-years away. It is 1.7 billion years old, with a mass of 1.46 solar masses and a radius of 1.77 solar radii. Its temperature is 6680 K, which is hotter than the Sun's. One planet orbits this star.
That planet is Kepler-1244 b, an Earth-like world discovered in 2016 by the transit method, in which a planet passing in front of its star causes a small dip in observed brightness. Its radius is 1.35 Earth radii, larger than Earth's, which places it within the Earth-like size class of planets no more than 1.5 times Earth's radius. It completes one orbit every 3.7 days, and its host star's mass and radius are both larger than the Sun's.
