Kepler-560b, or more correctly Kepler-560 Bb,[4] is a confirmed exoplanet orbiting the secondary star of the binary star system Kepler-560.[3][5] It is only 287 light-years away.[6] Though not listed in the Habitable Exoplanets Catalog, one study gives the planet an 85% chance of being in the habitable zone.[2]
