Kepler-923 and Its Earth-like Planet
Kepler-923 is a star located 3,260 light-years away. The star is 4.68 billion years old, with a mass of 1.11 solar masses and a radius of 1.26 solar radii. Its temperature is 5,990 K, hotter than the Sun's. One planet orbits this host.
Kepler-923 b is an Earth-like planet discovered in 2016 by the transit method, in which a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint and causes a small dip in observed brightness. It completes an orbit every 6.93 days. Its radius is 1.38 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. An Earth-like planet stays within 1.5 times Earth's radius.
