About this world
Kepler-1749 b is a super-Earth orbiting Kepler-1749, an orange dwarf 875 light-years from Earth. It is about 1.6 times the size of Earth. It completes an orbit every 14.5 days at 0.096 AU from its star, closer than Mercury is to the Sun.
Its equilibrium temperature is about 420 K (147 °C): far too hot for liquid water on its surface. By the "cosmic shoreline", it has likely held on to an atmosphere.
It was discovered in 2021 by transit with Kepler. A planet crosses its star and dims it by a tiny, periodic fraction.
