Kepler-1029 and Its Earth-Like Planet
Kepler-1029 is a star located 1200 light-years away. It is 4.07 billion years old and has a mass of 0.82 solar masses and a radius of 0.77 solar radii. Its temperature is 5030 K. The star's reported mass estimate is smaller than the Sun's, and its reported radius estimate is smaller than the Sun's. Its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
One planet orbits this star, named Kepler-1029 b. It was discovered in 2016 by the transit method, in which a planet passing in front of its star from our viewpoint causes a small dip in observed brightness. Kepler-1029 b is classified as Earth-like, a size class that stays within 1.5 times Earth's radius. It completes one orbit, its year, every 4.42 days. Its radius is 1.26 Earth radii, which is larger than Earth's.
