| Planet | Orbital period | Distance from star | Radius (Earths) | Mass (Earths) | Found | Method |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HD 159868 c | 351 days | 1.032 AU | at least 244.1 | 2012 | Radial Velocity | |
| HD 159868 b | 3.242 years | 2.32 AU | at least 704.9 | 2006 | Radial Velocity |
"At least" is a minimum mass. Radial velocity can only measure mass times the sine of the orbit's tilt.
