Kepler-26

Kepler-26 is a star in the northern constellation of Lyra. It is located at the celestial coordinates: Right Ascension Declination . With an apparent visual magnitude of 15.5, this star is too faint to be seen with the naked eye. ==Planetary system== The two planets, Kepler-26b and Kepler-26c, were discovered by transit method in late 2011, and classified as small (sub-Neptune) gas giants in 2016. In 2012, the planetary candidate Kepler-26d was also detected, and confirmed in 2014. The planet Kepler-26e was discovered on a much wider orbit in 2014.

Kepler-26e is an exoplanet orbiting the star Kepler-26, located in the constellation Lyra. It was discovered by the Kepler telescope in February 2014. It orbits its parent star at only 0.220 astronomical units and completes an orbit once every 46.8 days. It is located within the star's habitable zone. The Habitable Worlds Catalog issued by the Planetary Habitability Laboratory classes the planet as a warm superterran near the inner edge of the optimistic habitable zone, with an equilibrium temperature of . The planet is likely tidally locked due to its proximity to the star.
