Kepler-107 is a star about 1,694 light-years (519 parsecs ) away in the constellation Cygnus. No stellar companions were found as of 2016. [8]

Planetary system

Kepler-107 has four known planets discovered in 2014. [9] [10] [11] [12] A giant impact is the likely origin of two planets in the system. [4] Kepler-107 c is more than twice as dense (about 12.6 g/cm3) as the innermost exoplanet Kepler-107 b (about 5.3 g/cm3). [4]
