COROT-6 is a magnitude 13.9 star located in the Ophiuchus constellation.[3]
Location and properties
The star has a radius of about 102% of the Sun and a mass of about 110% of the Sun.[2]
It is a main sequence F type star a little larger and hotter than the Sun.
Planetary system
The star is orbited by one known extrasolar planet identified as COROT-6b. The discovery was made by the COROT program using the transit method.[2]
