Kepler-834 is an orange K-type dwarf (about 0.70 solar masses, 4,554 K, 0.66 solar radii), 634 light-years from Earth. Kepler-834 b is a planet with 2.0 Earth radii, with an orbital period of 13.3 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 634 light-years, Kepler-834 lies far beyond the nearest stars yet remains reachable to large survey telescopes.
