Voyager 1 at the speed it moved outward over the year to 2026-10-25 (JPL Horizons). Driving: nonstop, never refuelling.
How it was found
First planet found in 2016, by transit (NASA Exoplanet Archive).
Its planets
Kepler-1542 b — 0.8 times Earth's width, smaller than the Earth; its year lasts 4 days; about 890 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2016 by transit.
Kepler-1542 d — 0.9 times Earth's width, about Earth-sized — probably rocky; its year lasts 6 days; about 740 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2016 by transit.
Kepler-1542 c — 0.7 times Earth's width, smaller than the Earth; its year lasts 3 days; about 1,000 °C, hot enough to melt rock; found in 2016 by transit.
Kepler-1542 e — 0.8 times Earth's width, smaller than the Earth; its year lasts 5 days; about 790 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2016 by transit.
