Kepler 155 is a K-type star 957 light-years away.[4] In 2017, it was suspected to have a stellar companion 3.29 arcseconds away,[2] but it (Gaia EDR3 2133351698066483968) has the measured parallax of just 1.92±0.08 arcseconds according to Gaia data.[5]

Properties[edit]

Kepler 155 is a K-type star with 0.635 times the mass and 0.62 times the radius of the sun. It has a temperature of 4508 K.[6] Kepler 155 is not visible to the naked eye.[4] It metallicity is less than half to that of the sun, at Fe/H of -0.33.[2]

Planetary system[edit]

Kepler 155 has 2 planets confirmed in 2014,[7] one of which is in the habitable zone.[6] Kepler 155c orbits every 52.7 days,[4] at the inner edge of the habitable zone.[6] Kepler 155b, on the other hand, is too close to the star to be habitable.[6] Kepler 155c orbits a possibly slightly eccentric orbit at a distance where it receives an average 3% more radiation than Earth, resulting in planetary equilibrium temperature of 286 K.[2] The actual flux is uncertain though - another source in 2017 lists relative insolation of Kepler-155c as 1.28+0.26
