Kepler-30 is a star in the northern constellation of Lyra. It is located at the celestial coordinates: Right Ascension 19h 01m 08.0747s Declination +38° 56′ 50.219″.[2] With an apparent visual magnitude of 15.5,[3] this star is too faint to be seen with the naked eye. Kepler-30 is exhibiting a strong starspot activity.[6]
Planetary system[]
Three planets of Kepler-30 were detected by the transit method in 2011.[7] The planets are strongly interacting each other, with transit times variability exceeding one hour for each consecutive orbit.[8] Due irregularity of orbits, confirmation of planetary system was delayed until 2012.[9] The planetary periods are close to 1:2:5 orbital resonance but are not resonant, producing an extremely complex orbital dynamics.[10]
