characteristics
mass, radius , temperature
kepler-62d super-earth, exoplanet radius , mass bigger earth, smaller of ice giants uranus , neptune. has equilibrium temperature of 510 k (237 °c; 458 °f). has radius of 1.95 r⊕. because of radius (and temperature), either super-venus , or hot mini-neptune, no solid surface. however, mass not known, estimates place upper limit of 14 m⊕, real mass expected lower this. true value around 5.5 m⊕, based on composition.
host star
the planet orbits (k-type) star named kepler-62, orbited total of 5 planets. star has mass of 0.69 m☉ , radius of 0.64 r☉. has temperature of 4925 k , 7 billion years old. in comparison, sun 4.6 billion years old , has temperature of 5778 k. star metal-poor, metallicity ([fe/h]) of −0.37, or 42% of solar amount. luminosity (l☉) 21% of sun.
the star s apparent magnitude, or how bright appears earth s perspective, 13.65. therefore, dim seen naked eye.
orbit
kepler-62d orbits host star orbital period of 18 days @ distance of 0.12 au (compared distance of mercury sun, 0.38 au). receives 15 times more sunlight earth sun.
