K2-269 b: A Super-Earth in a Close Orbit
K2-269 is a star located 1180 light-years away. Its reported mass estimate is 1.18 solar masses and its reported radius estimate is 1.5 solar radii. The star's reported temperature is 6180 K. Both the mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, and the star is hotter than the Sun. One planet orbits this host.
K2-269 b is a Super-Earth discovered by transit in 2018. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness. The planet's orbital period is 4.14 days, and its radius is 1.57 Earth radii, larger than Earth's.
