Kepler-1016 and Its Two Planets
Kepler-1016 is a star 4580 light-years away with two planets orbiting it. The host star has a mass of 0.99 solar masses, a radius of 1 solar radii, a temperature of 5820 K, and an age of 3.89 billion years.
Both planets were discovered by transit in 2016. Kepler-1016 b is a Super-Earth with an orbital period of 1.95 days and a radius of 2.18 Earth radii. Kepler-1016 c is a Neptune-like planet with an orbital period of 106 days and a radius of 3.68 Earth radii.
Among the listed planets, Kepler-1016 b has the shortest year and the smallest radius, while Kepler-1016 c has the longest year and the largest radius.
