Kepler-653: A Distant Star With Two Small Worlds
Kepler-653 is a star located 1940 light-years away, and two planets have been found orbiting it. The star is 7.76 billion years old and contains 1.02 solar masses of material. Its radius of 1.19 solar radii is larger than the Sun's, while its temperature of 5670 K is cooler than the Sun's.
Both planets were discovered in 2016 by the transit method, which detects the small dip in a star's brightness when a planet crosses in front of it. Kepler-653 b is a Super-Earth with a radius of 1.95 Earth radii, larger than Earth's, and it completes an orbit every 14.7 days. Kepler-653 c is a Sub-Earth with a radius of 0.78 Earth radii, smaller than Earth's, and its orbital period is just 0.9 days. Among the listed planets, Kepler-653 c has the shortest year and the smallest radius, while Kepler-653 b has the longest year and the largest radius.
