Kepler-658 and Its Super-Earth
Kepler-658 is a star 1270 light-years away with one known planet. The host star is 3.09 billion years old and has a mass of 0.63 solar masses and a radius of 0.6 solar radii, both smaller than the Sun's. Its temperature of 4100 K is cooler than the Sun's.
The planet is Kepler-658 b, a Super-Earth discovered by transit in 2016. Its radius of 1.63 Earth radii is larger than Earth's, and a transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness. Kepler-658 b completes an orbit in 1.29 days.
