Kepler-1230 b: A Neptune-Like World in a Distant System
Kepler-1230 is a star located 4450 light-years away, and it hosts one known planet. The star is 3.47 billion years old, with a mass of 1.06 solar masses and a radius of 1.08 solar radii. Its temperature of 5960 K is hotter than the Sun's.
The sole planet orbiting Kepler-1230 is Kepler-1230 b, a Neptune-like planet discovered in 2016 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. Kepler-1230 b completes an orbit every 9.96 days, and its radius of 2.71 Earth radii is larger than Earth's.
