Kepler-303 is a star 684 light-years away with a spectral type of M0 V, making it a small, cool red dwarf. Its mass is 0.52 solar masses and its radius is 0.51 solar radii, both smaller than the Sun's. The star is 3.31 billion years old and has a temperature of 4070 K, cooler than the Sun's. Two planets are known to orbit this host.
Kepler-303 b is a Sub-Earth discovered by transit in 2014. Its radius is 0.89 Earth radii, smaller than Earth's, and its orbital period is 1.94 days. Kepler-303 c is an Earth-like planet, also discovered by transit in 2014. Its radius is 1.14 Earth radii, larger than Earth's, and its orbital period is 7.06 days. Among the listed planets, Kepler-303 b has the shortest year and the smallest radius, while Kepler-303 c has the longest year and the largest radius.
