    Habitability and Properties


    It orbits an M-type star. It's radius is 1.32 ± 0.09 times that of Earth.[1] It orbits at 0.177 AU[3] with an orbital period of 34.9893 days.[1] Because of its proximity to its star, it's likely to be tidally locked, meaning one side always facing the star, and one side always facing away. This means one side is blistering hot, and one side is bitter cold. However, in between those hostile zones, there would be a sliver of habitability. If it has a thick enough atmosphere, the sliver may even be global.[citation needed]

    Kepler-395c, también denominado KOI-2650.01, es un exoplaneta confirmado descubierto en 2012 por el telescopio espacial Kepler, siendo el primer planeta encontrado en torno al sistema Kepler-395 (posteriormente se descubrió un segundo, KOI-2650.02).[1] Las primeras observaciones indicaron un posible carácter habitable del mismo, pero quedó descartado como análogo terrestre tras comprobar que su estrella es mayor de lo previsto (suponiendo una temperatura superficial para el planeta considerablemente mayor).
