Kepler-51 is a Sun-like star that is only about 500 million years old.[2] It is orbited by three super-puff planets—Kepler-51b, c, and d—which have the lowest known densities of any exoplanet. The planets are all Jupiter-sized but with masses only a few times Earth's.[2]

[de] Kepler-51

Kepler-51 ist ein junger Stern im Sternbild Schwan mit einer Masse vergleichbar zur Sonne. Er befindet sich in einer Entfernung von etwa 2600 Lichtjahren und wird von 3 Exoplaneten umkreist, welche eine erstaunlich geringe Dichte aufweisen und deshalb als Zuckerwatte-Planeten (englisch Super-puff) bezeichnet werden.
