EPIC 206215704 b: An Earth-Like World Orbiting a Small Star
EPIC 206215704 is a star 358 light-years away with one planet. The star has a mass of 0.221 solar masses, a radius of 0.25 solar radii, and a temperature of 3470 K. Its reported mass estimate is smaller than the Sun's, its reported radius estimate is smaller than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
The planet EPIC 206215704 b is classified as Earth-like. It was discovered by transit in 2019. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness. The planet has an orbital period of 2.26 days and a radius of 1 Earth radius.
