اكتُشف أول كوكب عام 2016 بطريقتي السرعة الشعاعية والعبور (أرشيف ناسا للكواكب الخارجية).
كواكبه
K2-73 c — 13 times Earth's width (estimated from its mass, not measured), a giant, Jupiter-sized or more; its year lasts about 3 Earth years; about −87 °C, below freezing; found in 2025 by radial velocity.
K2-73 b — 2.6 times Earth's width, a 'sub-Neptune' — bigger than Earth, smaller than Neptune; its year lasts 7 days; about 700 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2016 by transit.
NASA Exoplanet Archive, Planetary Systems Composite Parameters (fetched 2026-11-02). Composite values: where a planet's size or mass was not measured, the archive estimates it from the other.
This research has made use of the NASA Exoplanet Archive, which is operated by the California Institute of Technology, under contract with NASA under the Exoplanet Exploration Program.
