Kepler-593 and Its Neptune-Like Planet
Kepler-593 is a star located 3180 light-years away. It has one known planet. The star is 3.63 billion years old, with a mass of 1.08 solar masses and a radius of 1.1 solar radii. Its temperature is 5970 K, and its reported mass estimate is larger than the Sun's, while its reported temperature is hotter than the Sun's.
The planet Kepler-593 b was 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. Repeated dips help establish orbital periods. Kepler-593 b is Neptune-like, a size class for planets reaching up to 4 times Earth's radius. It orbits every 21.2 days and has a radius of 2.87 Earth radii, a reported radius estimate larger than Earth's.
