Kepler-865: A Distant Star with Two Small Worlds

Kepler-865 is a star 1910 light-years away with two known planets. The host star is 4.27 billion years old, has a mass of 0.93 solar masses and a radius of 0.92 solar radii, and a temperature of 5570 K. Both planets were found by the transit method, which detects the small dip in a star's brightness when a planet passes in front of it; repeated dips help establish orbital periods.

Kepler-865 b is a Super-Earth discovered in 2016. It orbits every 14.2 days and has a radius of 2.49 Earth radii; its reported radius estimate is larger than Earth's, and among the listed planets it has the longest year and the largest radius. Kepler-865 c is a Sub-Earth discovered in 2023. It orbits every 6.21 days and has a radius of 0.89 Earth radii; among the listed planets it has the shortest year and the smallest radius.
