About how many Earth days is Kepler-62f's orbital period?

Kepler-62f takes about 267 Earth days to complete one orbit around its star.

The planet is a super-Earth orbiting Kepler-62, a cooler K-type star about 982 light-years away in the constellation Lyra. NASA’s Kepler mission announced the system on April 18, 2013, identifying five planets, including Kepler-62f, the outermost known member.

Kepler-62f’s measured orbital period is approximately 267.29 days, and its average distance from the star is about 0.718 astronomical units. Because Kepler-62 is dimmer and cooler than the Sun, that orbit places the planet in the star’s habitable zone. Kepler-62f is about 1.41 times Earth’s radius, although its true composition and atmosphere remain uncertain.

The planet was nearly missed: a software-pipeline problem failed to flag some of its transits. Astronomer Eric Agol noticed additional brightness dips recurring every 267 days, allowing the Kepler team to identify the signal. Its year is shorter than Earth’s, but its orbit is not especially close to its star in terms of stellar-system scale.
