HD 176693, also known as Kepler-408, is a star with a close orbiting exoplanet in the northern constellation of Draco. It is located at a distance of 291 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, but it is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −55 km/s.[5] The star is predicted to come as close as 23.1 light-years in 1.6 million years.[9] It has an apparent visual magnitude of 8.83,[2] which is too faint to be viewed with the naked eye.

The spectrum of HD 176693 matches an F-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of F8V.[3] The star is older than the Sun, at 7.15 billion years. It is slightly and uniformly[10] depleted in heavy elements compared to the Sun, having about 75% of the solar abundance of iron and other heavy elements.[6] HD 176693 is a chromospherically inactive star,[4] although there is weak evidence for tidal spin-up due to star-planet interaction.[11]

HD 176693 is 5% more massive than the Sun and has a 25% larger radius.[6] It is radiating 1.9[7] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,080 K. The star is spinning with a rotation period of 12.89 days.[6] As of 2016, multiplicity surveys have not detect any stellar companions to HD 176693.[12]

Planetary system

In 2014, a transiting Sub-Earth planet b was detected on a tight 2.5 day orbit. Initially reported with a relatively low confidence of 97.9%,[13] it was confirmed in 2016.[14]

The planetary orbit is inclined to the equatorial plane of the star by 41.7+5.1−3.5°. Such strong spin-orbit misalignment is unique for a sub-Earth transiting planet, and needs either additional giant planets in the system or a history of close stellar encounters to explain it.[6] The planet may also be a captured body originating from elsewhere.[15]
