Kepler-762 and Its Jupiter-Like Planet
Kepler-762 is a star 6190 light-years away with one known planet. The host star is 3.8 billion years old, has 1.06 solar masses, and spans 1.08 solar radii. Its temperature of 5940 K is hotter than the Sun's.
The planet Kepler-762 b is Jupiter-like, a size class that exceeds 4 times Earth's radius. Its radius of 12.7 Earth radii is larger than Earth's. It was found by transit, the dimming of a star's light as a planet crosses in front of it, and was announced in 2016. Kepler-762 b orbits in 3.77 days.
