K2-18b, also known as EPIC 201912552 b, is an exoplanet orbiting the red dwarf K2-18, located 124 light-years (38 pc) away from Earth. The planet is a sub-Neptune about 2.6 times the radius of Earth , with a 33-day orbit within the star's habitable zone .
Vitamin K2 may have a protective effect on bone mineral density and reduced risk of hip, vertebral and non-vertebral fractures. [11] These effects appear to be accentuated when combined with vitamin D and in the setting of osteoporosis. [1] Research suggests that vitamin K 2 (Menaquinone 7, MK-7]) may reduce the rate and severity of night time ...
Vitamin K is a family of structurally similar, fat-soluble vitamers found in foods and marketed as dietary supplements. [1] The human body requires vitamin K for post-synthesis modification of certain proteins that are required for blood coagulation ("K" from Danish koagulation, for "coagulation") or for controlling binding of calcium in bones and other tissues.

This is a list of exoplanets observed during the Kepler space telescope's K2 mission. On 31 March 2022, K2-2016-BLG-0005Lb was reported to be the most distant exoplanet found by Kepler to date. [ 1 ] [ 2 ]
K2-38b, also designated EPIC 204221263 b, is a massive rocky exoplanet closely orbiting a Sun-like star and is one of the densest planets ever found.Discovered in 2016 by Crossfield et al. and later characterized by Sinukoff et al., K2-38b is a rocky super-Earth about 55% larger than Earth (nearly 20,000 km wide) but about 12 times more massive (around 7.2*10^25 kg, a bit less than Uranus ...
The planet was found using data from the NASA Kepler Space Telescope, K2, and the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite.K2-415b was discovered in February 2023. [2]K2-415b is approximately 1.015 times the radius of Earth and is less than 7.5 times the mass of Earth.
K2-141b (also designated EPIC 246393474.01) is a massive rocky exoplanet orbiting extremely close to a K Type orange main-sequence star K2-141. The planet was first discovered by the Kepler space telescope during its K2 “Second Light” mission and later observed by the HARPS-N spectrograph.
K2-18, also known as EPIC 201912552, is a red dwarf star with two planetary companions located 124 light-years (38 parsecs) [4] from Earth, in the constellation of Leo. Its name is because it was discovered by the K2 Mission, which extended the mission of the Kepler Space Telescope after failure of two of its reaction wheels.
