K2-264 is known to have 2 exoplanets in orbit around it.
K2-264 b was discovered by the K2 observatory, in 2018-11, using the transit method. Its semi-major axis is 0.05 astronomical units, as compared to Earth's which is 1 astronomical unit. The mass of K2-264 b is 5.597 times the mass of Earth. The radius of K2-264 b is 2.231 that of Earth. At more than 10 Earth masses, K2-264 b is an ice giant, a planet that is made up mostly of volatiles like water, amonia and methane, and enveloped by a dense hydrogen and helium atmosphere, much like Uranus and Neptune in our solar system.
K2-264 c was discovered by the K2 observatory, in 2018-11, using the transit method. Its semi-major axis is 0.11 astronomical units, as compared to Earth's which is 1 astronomical unit. The mass of K2-264 c is 7.600 times the mass of Earth. The radius of K2-264 c is 2.668 that of Earth. At more than 10 Earth masses, K2-264 c is an ice giant, a planet that is made up mostly of volatiles like water, amonia and methane, and enveloped by a dense hydrogen and helium atmosphere, much like Uranus and Neptune in our solar system.
