## Catalogue data

### WHAT KIND OF THING IT IS

What the object is in itself, rather than how it happens to look from here.

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Host star temperature | 3587 ±157 K |
| Host star mass | 0.41 +0.11 / −0.048 M☉ |
| Host star radius | 0.374 +0.089 / −0.035 R☉ |

### HOW BRIGHT IT IS

What the light adds up to, measured through one filter at a time. A magnitude is a brightness on a backwards scale — the smaller the number, the brighter the object.

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Host star apparent magnitude (V) | 16.01 |

### THE ORBIT

The shape of the path, where the object sits on it, and the instant those figures were true of. An orbit is a fit to observations and drifts away from the real one either side of its epoch.

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Host star | EPIC 201238110 |
| Orbital period | 28.1656 days +0.0027 / −0.0028 |
| Transit midpoint | 2456852.6572 BJD |
| Stars in system | 1 |
| Planets in system | 1 |

### WHEN IT WAS FOUND

Who first saw it, from where, and by what method.

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Discovery method | Transit |
| Discovered at | K2 |
