Kepler-890 is a Sun-like G-type star (about 1.09 solar masses, 5,954 K, 1.13 solar radii), 1,712 light-years from Earth. Kepler-890 b is a planet with 8.9 Earth radii, with an orbital period of 52.8 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. The planet's large radius (8.9 Earth radii) indicates a bloated atmosphere heated by intense stellar radiation. At roughly 1,712 light-years, Kepler-890 lies far beyond the nearest stars yet remains reachable to large survey telescopes.
