How far, from the Sun

About 501 light-years. To cross it:

  • Light501 years
  • Voyager 1's speed8.91 million years
  • Driving at 100 km/h5.41 billion years

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 2013, by transit timing variations and transit (NASA Exoplanet Archive).

Its planets

  • Kepler-411 e — 3.3 times Earth's width (estimated from its mass, not measured), a 'sub-Neptune' — bigger than Earth, smaller than Neptune; its year lasts 32 days; about 230 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2018 by transit timing variations.
  • Kepler-411 c — 4.4 times Earth's width, Neptune-sized; its year lasts 8 days; about 570 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2016 by transit.
  • Kepler-411 b — 2.4 times Earth's width, a 'sub-Neptune' — bigger than Earth, smaller than Neptune; its year lasts 3 days; about 870 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2013 by transit.
  • Kepler-411 d — 3.3 times Earth's width, a 'sub-Neptune' — bigger than Earth, smaller than Neptune; its year lasts 58 days; about 140 °C, hotter than boiling water; found in 2018 by transit.

Where this comes from

  • 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.
