Kepler-360 is 2,857 light-years from the Sun. The NASA Exoplanet Archive lists 2 planets around this 6,053 K star; the first was found in 2014 by transit (Kepler).
Fly there in 3DKepler-360 b goes round its star every 3.29 days, 27 times as often as Mercury goes round the Sun.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kepler-360 b | 3.29 days | 0.0440 AU | 1.65 R⊕ | 3.36 M⊕ estimated | Transit, 2014 |

Values are the NASA Exoplanet Archive’s composite parameters. A radius marked estimated comes from a mass–radius relation; a mass marked minimum is M sin i. Planet sizes and colours in the 3D view are renderings: none of these worlds has been photographed as more than a point of light.
For a star of 6,053 K, 0.74 times as bright as the Sun, the habitable zone, where starlight could keep water liquid on a rocky surface, runs from about 0.80 to 1.41 AU. None of its known planets orbits inside it. The zone says how much starlight arrives, not whether a planet has water or air. The edges follow Kopparapu et al. (2014), as the 3D view draws them.
