About this world

Kepler-1130 d is an Earth-sized planet orbiting Kepler-1130, a yellow, Sun-like star 813 light-years from Earth. It is about 0.64 times the size of Earth. It completes an orbit every 4.27 days at 0.051 AU from its star, closer than Mercury is to the Sun.

Its equilibrium temperature is about 981 K (708 °C): far too hot for liquid water on its surface. By the "cosmic shoreline", its star has probably stripped its atmosphere away, leaving bare rock.

It was discovered in 2021 by transit with Kepler. A planet crosses its star and dims it by a tiny, periodic fraction. Kepler-1130 has 3 known planets; the others are Kepler-1130 c and Kepler-1130 b.
