Kepler-1000 is a Sun-like F-type star (about 1.40 solar masses, 6,453 K, 1.51 solar radii), 1,116 light-years from Earth. Kepler-1000 b is a planet with 4.8 Earth radii, with an orbital period of 120 days, discovered in 2016 via transit. The planet was found when it crossed the face of its star, producing periodic dips in brightness that reveal its size and orbital period to space-based photometry. At roughly 1,116 light-years, Kepler-1000 lies far beyond the nearest stars yet remains reachable to large survey telescopes.
