Unconfirmed potentially habitable exoplanet
Summary
KOI-4878.01 is an exoplanet candidate that orbits the G-type main-sequence star KOI-4878. It is 1,120 light-years (344 pc) distant from Earth. The features of the planet are very similar to that of Earth, and if it is confirmed, it would be one of the most Earth-like planets found. The orbital period of the exoplanet is around 449 days. It is located within the habitable zone of its parent star – a region where water can exist at liquid state.
