Kepler-324 e

Kepler-324 e is a confirmed sub-Neptune exoplanet 1,636 ly from Earth in the constellation Draco, discovered in 2021 by Kepler.

Transit: spotted by the tiny, repeating dip in its star’s light each time the planet crosses in front of it (what that means).

Its orange dwarf looks 7.5× wider than ours, bathing the surface in amber-orange light. It is likely tidally locked, so that sun never moves in the sky: one hemisphere in endless day, the other in permanent night. A year passes in just 14 days, and at an estimated 362°C (683°F) it is blistering.

Catalog values (NASA Exoplanet Archive): mass 235 M⊕, radius 2.04 R⊕. Its catalog mass and radius imply a density of 152.8 g/cm³, denser than compressed iron, so they cannot both be right, and gravityfinder does not use Kepler-324 e in gravity rankings or weight calculations.

Your voice would sound high and thin, almost cartoonish.

Assuming Earth-like air at this world's temperature of about 362°C (683°F), sound would travel roughly 48% faster than on Earth, so your voice would sound high and thin, almost cartoonish. The real atmosphere is unknown, so this is a best guess.

  • !Blistering at about 362°C (683°F), far too hot for liquid water on the surface.
  • !Earth-similarity index 0.15: this world has almost nothing in common with our own.
  • !Likely tidally locked: one hemisphere in endless day, the other in permanent night.

Common questions

How far is Kepler-324 e from Earth?

Kepler-324 e lies about 1,636 light-years from Earth.

How long would it take to get to Kepler-324 e?

At the speed of NASA's Parker Solar Probe, the fastest craft ever built, the journey would take about 2.6 million years.

How hot is Kepler-324 e?

Kepler-324 e's equilibrium temperature, the balance it reaches from its star's light alone before any greenhouse warming, is about 362°C (683°F).

How long is a year on Kepler-324 e?

Kepler-324 e completes one orbit of its star in 14 days.
