Kepler-673 and Its Jupiter-Like Planet
Kepler-673 is a star located 2990 light-years away. It has one known planet. The star is 4.47 billion years old, with a mass of 0.88 solar masses and a radius of 0.84 solar radii. Its temperature is 5360 K. The star's reported mass estimate is smaller than the Sun's, and its reported radius estimate is also smaller than the Sun's. Its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
The planet Kepler-673 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-673 b is classified as Jupiter-like, a size class for planets exceeding 4 times Earth's radius. Its radius is 6.54 Earth radii, larger than Earth's, and it orbits every 3.73 days.
