Kepler-1531 and Its Earth-Like Planet
Kepler-1531 is a star located 2170 light-years away, and it hosts one known planet. The host star has a mass of 1.16 solar masses and a radius of 1.27 solar radii, making both its reported mass and radius estimates larger than the Sun's. Its age is 2.82 billion years, and its temperature of 6260 K is hotter than the Sun's.
The sole planet in this system is Kepler-1531 b, an Earth-like world discovered by the transit method 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-1531 b orbits its star every 1.14 days and has a radius of 1.11 Earth radii.
