Kepler-293 is a Sun-like G-type star (about 0.93 solar masses, 5,804 K, 0.96 solar radii), 975 light-years from Earth. Kepler-293 b is a planet with 3.1 Earth radii, with an orbital period of 19.3 days, at 0.144 AU from its star, discovered in 2014 via transit. Kepler-293 c is a planet with 3.8 Earth radii, with an orbital period of 54.2 days, at 0.286 AU from its star, discovered in 2014 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.
