Kepler-898 and Its Earth-like Planet
Kepler-898 is a star 1580 light-years away with one known planet. Its mass is 0.65 solar masses, its radius is 0.62 solar radii, and its temperature is 4220 K. The star is 3.98 billion years old.
The planet Kepler-898 b was found by transit in 2016, when it passed in front of its star from our viewpoint. It orbits every 5.87 days and has a radius of 1.49 Earth radii. That places it within the Earth-like size class, which covers planets up to 1.5 times Earth's radius, and its radius is larger than Earth's.
