Kepler-33

Kepler-33 is a star about 4,000 light-years (1,200 parsecs) in the constellation of Cygnus, with a system of five known planets. Having just begun to evolve off from the main sequence, its radius and mass are difficult to ascertain, although data available in 2020 shows its best-fit mass of 1.3M and radius of 1.6R are compatible with a model of a subgiant star.
