Kepler 186F Sun. It's the fifth planet in its planetary system; This places the planet near the outer edge of the habitable zone.
Kepler 186f may be tidally locked with one side of the planet always. This places the planet near the outer edge of the habitable zone. Its star is much cooler and redder than our sun.
Red dwarfs emit far less energy than the sun, as a result kepler 186f only receives about a third of the sunlight we receive on earth.
The mass of the planet is not known, therefore one can only speculate about the planet's composition. A year on kepler 186f would only be 130 days. Its star is much cooler and redder than our sun. Kepler 186f orbits a red dwarf star with around half the mass of the sun, red dwarfs are by far the most common type of star in our galaxy.
