Kepler-33 is a star in the constellation of Cygnus with a system of five known planets. Having begun to evolve off from the main sequence,[3] it has roughly 161.5% of the Sun's radius but only 116.4% of the Sun's mass. Given its mass and temperature, it is likely a subgiant star. The star's distance is not known.
Planetary system
On January 26, 2012, a system of five planets around the star was announced.[3] However, unlike other planets confirmed via Kepler, their masses are not known, as Doppler Spectroscopy measurements were not done before the announcement. Judging by their radii, b may be a large Super-Earth or small Hot Neptune while the other four are all likely to be the latter.
Planets b and c may actually be in a 7:3 resonance, as there is a 0.05 day discrepancy; there is also a small 0.18 day discrepancy between a 5:3 resonance between planets c and d. The other planets do not seem to be in any resonances, though near resonances are 3d:2e and 4e:3f.
