Kepler-902 and Its Neptune-Like Planet
Kepler-902 is a star 3800 light-years away with one known planet in orbit. The host star is 4.37 billion years old and has a mass of 0.95 solar masses, a radius of 0.93 solar radii, and a temperature of 5650 K. Its reported mass estimate is smaller than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
The sole listed planet, Kepler-902 b, was discovered by transit in 2016, meaning it was detected as it passed in front of its star and dimmed the observed brightness. This Neptune-like planet completes an orbit every 40.1 days and has a radius of 2.54 Earth radii, which is larger than Earth's.
