Kepler-1271 and Its Earth-like Planet
Kepler-1271 is a star 2710 light-years away with one planet orbiting it. The host star is 3.63 billion years old and has a mass of 1.13 solar masses, along with a radius of 1.23 solar radii and a temperature of 6140 K. Its mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, and it is hotter than the Sun.
The planet Kepler-1271 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. Kepler-1271 b orbits every 3.03 days. Its radius of 1.48 Earth radii is larger than Earth's and places it within the Earth-like size class, which covers planets up to 1.5 times Earth's radius.
