Kepler-920 and Its Two Planets
Kepler-920 is a star located 3270 light-years away, and two planets have been found orbiting it. The star is 4.37 billion years old, with a mass of 0.89 solar masses and a radius of 0.85 solar radii. Its temperature is 5400 K. The star's reported mass and radius estimates are smaller than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
Both planets were discovered by transit in 2016. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness. Kepler-920 b is a Super-Earth with an orbital period of 6.53 days and a radius of 2.42 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. Kepler-920 c is Neptune-like, with an orbital period of 101 days and a radius of 3.8 Earth radii, also larger than Earth's. Among the listed planets, Kepler-920 b has the shortest year and the smallest radius, while Kepler-920 c has the longest year and the largest radius.
