Kepler-984 and Its Super-Earth
Kepler-984 is a star 1500 light-years away with one known planet in orbit. The host star is 3.98 billion years old, has a mass of 0.96 solar masses and a radius of 0.93 solar radii, and a temperature of 5610 K. Its reported mass and radius estimates are smaller than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
The planet, Kepler-984 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-984 b is classified as a Super-Earth, a size class that reaches 2.5 times Earth's radius. It completes an orbit every 43 days and has a radius of 2.12 Earth radii, larger than Earth's.
