The confirmed planetary system was first detected by the Kepler mission, and contains four planets.[6]This system was initially believed to contain twoco-orbital planetsorbiting the star at approximately the sameorbital distanceevery 9.8 days, with one permanently locked 60° behind the other in one of the twoTrojanLagrangian points.[7]The two co-orbital planets were thought to be locked inmean motion resonanceswith the other two planets, creating an overall 6:4:4:3 resonance.[8]This would have been the first known example of co-orbital planets.

However, follow-up study of the system revealed that an alternative configuration, with the four planets having orbital periods in the ratio 8:6:4:3 is better supported by the data. This configuration does not contain co-orbital planets,[9]and has been confirmed by further observations.[3]It represents the first confirmed 4-bodyorbital resonance.[6]

The radii are 3.0, 3.4, 5.2, and 4.6 Earth radii, and the orbital periods are 7.3845, 9.8456, 14.7887 and 19.7257 days, respectively.[3]
