The planet was discovered by NASA's Kepler spacecraft using the transit method, in which the dimming effect that a planet causes as it crosses in front of its star is measured. NASA announced the confirmation of the exoplanet on 6 January 2015.[3] Confirmed exoplanet{{Planetary radius| align = right | base = Earth | Exoplanet = Kepler-440b | radius = 186 }} Kepler-440b is a super-Earth with a radius 1.86 times that of Earth. The planet orbits Kepler-440 once every 101.1 days. HabitabilityThe planet was announced as being located within the habitable zone of Kepler-440, a region where liquid water could exist on the surface of the planet.
