The exoplanets were found using a statistical technique called "verification by multiplicity". 95% of the discovered exoplanets were smaller than Neptune and four, including Kepler-296f, were less than 2 1/2 the size of Earth and were in habitable zones where surface temperatures are suitable for liquid water.

A potentially habitable exoplanet that is roughly similar in size to Earth has been found in a system located 40 light-years away, according to a new study.
The most massive transiting exoplanet is KELT-1b which masses 27.23 M J (making it a brown dwarf) while the least massive is Kepler-42d which masses less than 0.003 M J or 0.9 M E. [2] The largest exoplanet known is HAT-P-32b which is 2.037 R J. The smallest exoplanet known is also Kepler-42d which is 0.051 R J or 0.57 R 🜨.
The planet is located some 1,200 light-years away. A light-year is 5.8 trillion miles. It's the second-lightest exoplanet found so far based on its dimensions and mass, according to the researchers.
From the total of 4,949 stars known to have exoplanets (as of July 24, 2024), there are a total of 1007 known multiplanetary systems, [1] or stars with at least two confirmed planets, beyond the Solar System. This list includes systems with at least three confirmed planets or two confirmed planets where additional candidates have been proposed.
