Kepler-51 is a Sun-like star that is about 500 million years old.[2] It is orbited by four planets—Kepler-51b, c, d and e—first three of which are super-puffs and have the lowest known densities of any known exoplanet. The transiting planets in the system (b, c and d) are similar in radius to gas giants like Jupiter, but have unusually small masses for their size, only a few times greater than Earth’s.[2]
