Kepler-296 is a binary star system in the constellation Draco. The primary star appears to be a late K-type main-sequence star, while the secondary is a red dwarf.

Planetary system

The following plot shows the approximate sizes of the planets in this system compared to planets in the Solar System.

Five exoplanets have been detected around the system; all are believed to be orbiting the primary star rather than its dimmer companion. Two planets in particular, Kepler-296e and Kepler-296f, are likely located in the habitable zone. For the planetary system to remain stable, no additional giant planets can be located up to orbital radius 10.1 AU.
