Kepler-1273 b: A Super-Earth in a Distant System
Kepler-1273 is a star located 3630 light-years away. It has 0.94 solar masses and 0.91 solar radii, meaning it is somewhat smaller than the Sun in both mass and size. Its temperature is 5570 K, cooler than the Sun's. The star is 4.47 billion years old. One planet orbits this host.
That planet is Kepler-1273 b, a Super-Earth discovered in 2016 by the transit method, in which a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint and causes a small dip in observed brightness. Its radius is 2.49 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. This places it within the Super-Earth size class, which reaches up to 2.5 times Earth's radius. The planet completes one orbit, or year, every 28.6 days.
