Kepler-1851 b: A Neptune-Like World in a Distant System
Kepler-1851 is a star located 5190 light-years from Earth. It has a mass of 0.967 solar masses and a radius of 0.879 solar radii, with a reported temperature of 5980 K, which is hotter than the Sun's. One planet is known to orbit this star.
That planet, Kepler-1851 b, is classified as Neptune-like and was discovered in 2021 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. Repeated dips help establish orbital periods. Kepler-1851 b completes an orbit every 12 days and has a radius of 3.9 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. A Neptune-like planet reaches 4 times Earth's radius, so this world sits near the upper end of that size class.
