Kepler-1647 b Standalone Image

Caption

A standalone version of the artistic impression of the planet Kepler-1647 b. Given that the planet is nearly identical to Jupiter in both size and mass, the planet is expected to be roughly similar in appearance. But it is much warmer -- Kepler-1647 b is in the habitable zone.
