EPIC 206032309 b: A Nearby Earth-Sized World
EPIC 206032309 is a star 526 light-years from Earth. Its reported mass is 0.361 solar masses, its radius is 0.373 solar radii, and its temperature is 3490 K. Compared with the Sun, the star is less massive, smaller, and cooler. One known planet orbits this host.
That planet, EPIC 206032309 b, was discovered in 2019 by the transit method. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness. EPIC 206032309 b completes an orbit every 2.88 days and has a radius of 1.01 Earth radii. Its size class is Earth-like, a category that includes planets within 1.5 times Earth's radius. The planet has no reported mass estimate.
