Kepler-1370 and Its Two Planets

Kepler-1370 is a star located 3,270 light-years away, and two planets have been found in orbit around it. The host star is 2.88 billion years old, holds 1.19 solar masses, spans 1.29 solar radii, and has a temperature of 6,200 K. Its reported mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, and its temperature is hotter than the Sun's.

Both planets were 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-1370 b is a Super-Earth with a radius of 1.84 Earth radii and an orbital period of 20.3 days. Kepler-1370 c is Earth-like, with a radius of 1.27 Earth radii and an orbital period of 7.44 days. Both planets have reported radius estimates larger than Earth's, and size classes compare radius with Earth's rather than indicating composition. Among the listed planets, Kepler-1370 c has the shortest year and the smallest radius, while Kepler-1370 b has the longest year and the largest radius.
