Kepler-427 b: A Distant Jupiter-like World
Kepler-427 is a G2 V star, a Sun-like main-sequence dwarf, located 3320 light-years from Earth. The star has a mass of 0.96 solar masses, a radius of 1.35 solar radii, a temperature of 5800 K, and an age of 7 billion years. Its reported radius is larger than the Sun's. One planet is known to orbit this host.
Kepler-427 b is a Jupiter-like planet discovered by the transit method in 2014. It completes one orbit in 10.3 days. Its radius is 13.8 Earth radii, larger than Earth's, and its mass is 92.2 Earth masses, also larger than Earth's. Its mean density is 0.194 g/cm³, which is 0.0351 times Earth's.
