Kepler-68 is a Sun-like G-type star (about 1.06 solar masses, 5,847 K, 1.26 solar radii), 144 light-years from Earth. Kepler-68 b is a 8.0-Earth-mass planet, with an orbital period of 5.4 days, at 0.061 AU from its star, and an equilibrium temperature near 1,275 K, on an eccentric orbit (e ≈ 0.09), discovered in 2013 via transit. Kepler-68 c is a 1.3-Earth-mass planet, with an orbital period of 9.6 days, at 0.090 AU from its star, and an equilibrium temperature near 1,052 K, on an eccentric orbit (e ≈ 0.10), discovered in 2013 via transit.
