Kepler-27 is a star in the northern constellation of Cygnus, the swan. It is located at the celestial coordinates: Right Ascension 19h 28m 56.81962s, Declination +41° 05′ 09.1405″.[2] With an apparent visual magnitude of 15.855,[3] this star is too faint to be seen with the naked eye.

Planetary system
The planetary system of Kepler-27 comprising two small gas giants on eccentric orbits[5] was discovered in late 2011.[6] The planets Kepler-27b and Kepler-27c have equilibrium temperatures of 610 K and 481 K, respectively.[7] In 2021, a third, sub-Neptune-sized planet was confirmed, orbiting closer in than the other two planets.[8][9]
