Abstract:

Light curves of the eclipsing binary FL Lyr acquired by the Kepler space telescope are analyzed. Eclipse timing measurements for FL Lyr testify to the presence of a third body in the system. Preliminary estimates of its mass and orbital period are greater than 2 MJupiter and greater than 7 yrs. The times of primary minimum in the light curve of FL Lyr during the operation of the Kepler mission are presented.
