Kepler-896 and Its Two Neptune-Like Planets
Kepler-896 is a star located 7620 light-years away. It is 5.01 billion years old, with a mass of 0.84 solar masses, a radius of 0.81 solar radii, and a temperature of 5260 K, making it smaller, less massive, and cooler than the Sun. Two planets are known to orbit this host.
Kepler-896 b was discovered by transit in 2016. It is a Neptune-like planet with an orbital period of 145 days and a radius of 2.53 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. Among the listed planets, it has the longest year, at 145 days, and the smallest radius, at 2.53 Earth radii.
Kepler-896 c was discovered by transit in 2023. It is also Neptune-like, with a radius of 3.15 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. It orbits every 29.5 days, giving it the shortest year among the listed planets, and its radius of 3.15 Earth radii is the largest of the two.
