Voyager 1 à velocidade com que se afastou ao longo do ano até 2026-10-25 (JPL Horizons). Dirigindo: sem parar, sem nunca reabastecer.
Como foi descoberto
Primeiro planeta descoberto em 2011 por trânsito e velocidade radial (NASA Exoplanet Archive).
Seus planetas
Kepler-10 b — 1.5 times Earth's width, about Earth-sized — probably rocky; its year lasts 20 hours; about 1,900 °C, hot enough to melt rock; found in 2011 by transit.
Kepler-10 c — 2.4 times Earth's width, a 'sub-Neptune' — bigger than Earth, smaller than Neptune; its year lasts 45 days; about 310 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2011 by transit.
Kepler-10 d — 3.5 times Earth's width (estimated from its mass, not measured), a 'sub-Neptune' — bigger than Earth, smaller than Neptune; its year lasts 150 days; about 110 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2023 by radial velocity.
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.
