Kepler-573 and Its Neptune-like Planet
Kepler-573 is a star located 2520 light-years away. Its mass is 0.99 solar masses and its radius is 1.02 solar radii, making it slightly less massive than the Sun while marginally larger. The star's temperature is 5750 K, and its age is 5.89 billion years. One planet is known to orbit this host.
That planet is Kepler-573 b, a Neptune-like world discovered in 2016 by the transit method, in which a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint and causes a small dip in observed brightness. Kepler-573 b has an orbital period of 22.2 days, the time it takes to complete one orbit. Its radius is 2.79 Earth radii, a size estimate larger than Earth's.
