I haven't seen another designation for it yet, but here is a bit of info about it from the exoplanet app: Stellar mass: 0.97 Solar masses Spectral type: G5 Habitable zone: 0.89 to 1.6 AU Distance 587 light years 22-B Radius 2.38 Earth radii Orbital period: 290 days Semi-major axis 0.849 AU There appears to be a bit of a bug in the exoplanet coordinate listing, but I believe it is at: RA 19h 18m 09s Dec +47deg 53m 29s Chuck here is a link to a different article about it: http://www.space.com/13821-nasa-kepler-alien-planets-habitable-zone.html Clear skies, Dale.

I want to know how OLD the star Keppler 22 is, but I can't find any info on that. Just that it's a G-Type and it's 600 light years away.
