Kepler-693 and Its Jupiter-Like Planet
Kepler-693 is a star 3760 light-years away with one known planet. The host star is 4.47 billion years old and has a mass of 0.76 solar masses, a radius of 0.72 solar radii, and a temperature of 4880 K.
The planet Kepler-693 b was discovered by transit in 2016. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness. Kepler-693 b has an orbital period of 15.4 days and a radius of 10.2 Earth radii. Its size classification is Jupiter-like, which means it exceeds 4 times Earth's radius. Its radius is larger than Earth's. The star's mass and radius are smaller than the Sun's, and its temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
