Kepler-366 and Its Two Worlds

Kepler-366 is a star located 6050 light-years away, with two planets known to orbit it. The host star is 3.39 billion years old and has a mass of 1.07 solar masses, a radius of 1.11 solar radii, and a temperature of 6010 K. Its reported temperature is hotter than the Sun's.

Both planets were discovered by transit in 2014. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness.

Kepler-366 b is classified as Earth-like, with a radius of 1.46 Earth radii and an orbital period of 3.28 days. Among the listed planets, it has the shortest year by reported estimates and the smallest radius by reported estimates.

Kepler-366 c is classified as a Super-Earth, with a radius of 1.79 Earth radii and an orbital period of 12.5 days. Among the listed planets, it has the longest year and the largest radius by reported estimates.

Planet size classes compare radius with Earth's: an Earth-like planet stays within 1.5 times Earth's radius, while a Super-Earth reaches 2.5 times.
