Kepler-1962 and Its Earth-like World
Kepler-1962 is a star 2830 light-years away with a mass of 0.931 solar masses, a radius of 0.93 solar radii, and a temperature of 5930 K. One planet is known to orbit it, 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.
That planet, Kepler-1962 b, is classified as Earth-like, a size class for planets with a radius up to 1.5 times Earth's. It completes an orbit every 7.99 days, and its radius of 1.21 Earth radii is larger than Earth's.
