Kepler-11

Following up on yesterday’s entry, here is some data on a star system 2000 light years away, discovered by the Kepler probe.  The star is class G and has six planets.  The most distant is less than half an AU from the star, so the system isn’t likely to be hospitable to our kind of life, but it’s neat to have so much information on one star system all at once.  Some more info here.
