The Kepler-36 system contains 2 exoplanets. It is located 1721.96 light years away from the solar system.
| Mass | 1.03 solar masses |
| Radius | 1.63 solar radiae |
| Temperature | 5979 kelvin |
| Stellar Metallicity | -0.18 decimal exponent |
| Age | 4.79 billion years |
At 3.832 Earth masses, Kepler-36 b is a so called Super Earth. Super Earths could be terrestrial worlds like Earth, but they could also be ocean worlds or terrestrial worlds wrapped in a substantial atmosphere, in which case some refer to them as Mini Neptunes.
