Kepler-297 is a Sun-like G-type star (about 0.85 solar masses, 5,618 K, 0.90 solar radii), 692 light-years from Earth. Kepler-297 b is a planet with 2.9 Earth radii, with an orbital period of 38.9 days, at 0.217 AU from its star, discovered in 2014 via transit. Kepler-297 c is a planet with 6.5 Earth radii, with an orbital period of 74.9 days, at 0.336 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.
