Kepler-84 is a Sun-like star 3,339 light-years from the Sun.[6] It is a G-type star. The stellar radius measurement has a large uncertainty of 48% as in 2017, complicating the modelling of the star.[7] The Kepler-84 star has two suspected stellar companions. Four stars, all more than four magnitudes fainter than Kepler-84, are seen within a few arcseconds and at least one is probably gravitationally bound to Kepler-84.[8] Another, which has only a 0.005% chance of being a background star, is a yellow star with mass 0.855 M at a projected separation of 0.18±0.05″ or 0.26″ (213.6 AU).[9]

Planetary system

Kepler-84 is orbited by five known planets, four small gas giants and a Super-Earth. Planets Kepler-84b and Kepler-84c were confirmed in 2012[10] while the rest was confirmed in 2014.[11] To keep the known planetary system stable, no additional giant planets can be located within 7.4 AU from the parent stars.[12]
