Kepler-89 is a star with four confirmed planets. Kepler-89 is a possible wide binary star.

==Planetary system== The discovery of four planets orbiting the star was announced October 2012 by analyzing data gathered by Kepler space telescope. Follow-up radial velocity measurements confirmed the existence of Kepler-89d, indicating that Kepler-89d is slightly larger and more massive than Saturn. In October 2013, other three planets were confirmed with Kepler-89c and Kepler-89e getting reasonable mass constraints. Transit-timing variations of the outermost planet suggest that additional planets or minor bodies are present in the system.
