Kepler-690 and Its Planet
Kepler-690 is a star located 5430 light-years away. It is 3.55 billion years old and has a mass of 1.11 solar masses and a radius of 1.16 solar radii, both larger than the Sun's corresponding values. Its temperature is 5910 K, which is hotter than the Sun's.
One planet orbits Kepler-690, named Kepler-690 b. It was discovered by the transit method in 2016. During a transit, a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness; repeated dips help establish the planet's orbital period. Kepler-690 b completes one orbit every 7.75 days, and its radius is 5.95 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. With a radius exceeding four times Earth's, it is classified as Jupiter-like.
