Discovered by NASA's Kepler spacecraft, Kepler-1652b was first announced as a candidate in 2013, but wasn't validated until four years later in 2017. It is a potential Mega-Earth with 160% Earth's radius and a density of around 9.9 g/cm³, suggesting a high mass and terrestrial composition. The planet orbits well within the habitable zone of its system, the region where liquid water can exist on a planet's surface.[1] The Planetary Habitability Laboratory (PHL) has given Kepler-1652b a very high Earth Similarity Index (ESI) value of 0.85. CharacteristicsMass, Radius, and TemperatureKepler-1652b, like almost all of Kepler's known exoplanets, was found with the transit method, where a planet blocks a tiny fraction of its host star's light when it passed between the star and our line of sight. As a result, the only well-established parameter is its radius. Based on the size of the star and the amount of light blocked, Kepler-1652b has a radius of 1.60 {{earth radius|link=y}}, within the super-Earth range between the sizes of Earth and the ice giants Uranus and Neptune. Usually, the transition between rocky Super-Earths and gaseous Mini-Neptunes is expected to be at 1.6 {{earth radius}}, which would suggest that Kepler-1652b may be a small ice giant or ocean planet. However, Torres et al. gave the planet a density of 9.9{{±|0.88|1.34}} g/cm^3, much too high for a volatile-rich composition. Using the radius and density values given by Torres et al., Kepler-1652b has a mass of approximately 7.36{{±|1.4|1.76}} {{earth mass|link=y}} and a gravitational pull about 2.875 times that of Earth. This suggests a composition made of rocks and heavy solids, with a larger iron percentage than Earth, possibly around 20-25%. Kepler-1652b has an equilibrium temperature of {{convert|268|K|C F}}, similar to Earth's at {{convert|255|K|C F}}.[1] OrbitKepler-1625b has an orbital period of 38.1 days, over 9 times shorter than Earth's year of 365 days. It has a semi-major axis, or average orbital radius, of 0.1654 AU, also much lower than Earth's. Despite its close proximity to the star, Kepler-1652b is still temperate, due to how small Kepler-1652 is compared to our Sun. The planet's eccentricity is believed to be near or at 0.[1] Host StarKepler-1652b orbits the red dwarf star Kepler-1652, also designated KOI-2626. It is 0.404 times the mass and 0.382 times the radius of the Sun, with a temperature of 3638 K and an age of 3.2 billion years. For comparison, our Sun has a temperature of 5778 K and is 4.5 billion years old. Kepler-1652 is about 1.6 to 2.6% as luminous as the Sun. The apparent magnitude of the star is unknown.[1] HabitabilityKepler-1652b's placement within the habitable zone does not ensure its habitability. Multiple other factors are included, such as composition, atmosphere, and the amount of radiation the planet receives. Kepler-1652b has a temperature very similar to that of Earth, and gets about 81% the sunlight Earth does. This places it well within the conservative habitable zone and means it is unlikely to suffer a runaway greenhouse effect. While the planet is most likely tidally locked to its host star, which would create one hot side and one cold side, a thick atmosphere - if one exists - can distribute heat evenly around the planet, allowing for more areas to retain liquid water. The high density of Kepler-1652b increases its chances of habitability. Most planets with radii of ≥1.6{{earth radius}} are expected to either be entirely covered in thick oceans or be more akin to the ice giants like Uranus or Neptune. However, the high density of 9.9 g/cm^3 indicates a rocky composition not too different from Earth's albeit with more iron. Without a rocky surface, life may never be able to develop on a planet. Kepler-1652b has a calculated mass of about 7 times that of Earth, which could help power a strong magnetic field. Red dwarfs like Kepler-1652 can produce very strong flares, much more powerful than what the Sun produces, which could erode away the atmosphere of orbiting planets, compromising their habitability. While not all red dwarfs are this active, a strong magnetic field can still help keep the worst of the host star's radiation from reaching the planetary surface, protecting any possible life. In addition, such a high mass of Kepler-1652b suggests large amounts of volcanic activity, which can pump out large amounts of gases to build a thick atmosphere, allowing for even distribution of the star's energy around the planet. According to the PHL, Kepler-1652b has an Earth Similarity Index (ESI) of 0.85, making it one of the three most earthlike exoplanets known as of July 2018. The planets Proxima Centauri b and TRAPPIST-1e each have an ESI of 0.85 as well.[2] See also
