KOI-319

Planetary system · 2153.1 light-years away

KOI-319 is 2,153 light-years from the Sun. The NASA Exoplanet Archive lists 2 planets around this 5,880 K star; the first was found in 2014 by transit timing variations (Kepler).

Worth knowing

KOI-319 b goes round its star every 46.1 days, 1.9 times as often as Mercury goes round the Sun.

Where the archive gives only a period or only an orbit size, the other is worked out from Kepler’s third law with the star’s mass.

Values are the NASA Exoplanet Archive’s composite parameters. A radius marked estimated comes from a mass–radius relation; a mass marked minimum is M sin i. Planet sizes and colours in the 3D view are renderings: none of these worlds has been photographed as more than a point of light.
