Kepler-1916 and Its Neptune-Like Planet
Kepler-1916 is a star 6710 light-years away, and it hosts one known planet. The star's reported mass estimate is 1.2 solar masses, its reported radius estimate is 1.15 solar radii, and its temperature is 6220 K. Each of these measurements is larger or hotter than the corresponding value for the Sun.
The planet Kepler-1916 b is Neptune-like, a size class that reaches 4 times Earth's radius. Its radius is 2.62 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. It was discovered by transit in 2021, and its orbital period is 31.3 days.
