K2-3c, also known as EPIC 201367065 c, is an exoplanet orbiting the red dwarf star K2-3 every 24 days. It is 143 light-years away.[3] It has a density of about 3.7 g/cm3, indicating that it could be an ocean world or a mini-Neptune. It is the second-smallest planet in the system by both radius and mass, with a mass almost three times that of Earth.[4]
