White circles show HDS RVs obtained on 12 June 2019. The error bars indicate the internal uncertainties as derived for the RV data points ◦ ◦ by the Data Reduction Software of the spectrographs. The solid gray line is the best-fitting model, which has a projected obliquity of λc = 153 ± 8 . Lower shows observed minus calculated (O − C) between the data and the best-fitting model. The dashed gray line is a model in which λc is zero and all of the other parameters are the same as in the best-fitting model. The horizontal bars denote the time intervals from first to fourth contact (light gray) and second to third contact (dark gray). (Right) Same as Left but for the smaller, inner planet b. These RVs were obtained on 20 July 2019 with ESPRESSO. We find +45 ◦ λb = 173−53 . The shaded gray area shows the time interval when our view of K2-290 was blocked by clouds.

To decide between check on the long-term stability of the system for different these possibilities, we observed a transit of the inner planet choices of the mutual . We used the mer- with the newly commissioned Echelle Spectrograph for Rocky cury6 code (7), including the effects of general relativity. We Exoplanets and Stable Spectroscopic Observations [ESPRESSO assumed both orbits to be initially circular. This is a conserva- tive assumption in that sense that any initial eccentricity would extend the range of unstable mutual inclinations. The copla- nar configuration is stable for at least 2.8 Gy, the maximum time span that was simulated. An antialigned configuration, with a mutual inclination of 180◦, is also stable over the same time span. We tried a configuration in which planet c’s orbit is misaligned relative to the star by the observed amount and planet b is aligned with the stellar equator. This configuration is also stable for at least 2.8 Gy, although both planets do not often transit at the same time. When one planet transits, the other planet also transits about 15% of the time. Based on these integrations, we calculated the expected level of transit timing variations (TTV) and transit duration variations (TDVs) using the code described in ref. 8. In both scenarios, the expected level of TTVs is too small to be detectable using the cur- rently available dataset. The TTVs are on the order of 0.1 min for the inner planet and 0.01 to 0.1 min for the outer planet (depend- ing on the mass of the inner planet). For the case in which the inner planet is aligned with the stellar spin, the TDVs of the inner Fig. 2. Results for the projected obliquities of K2-290 with respect to both planet are on the order of 10 min over 3 y. Our simulations also of the known planets.

This makes the planet prone to into account the constraints from our orbital stability calculations.

Another possible explanation The model assumes that the two planets form within the disk for such systems is the tilting torque exerted on the inner system at the locations we observe them today. Our model does not take of planets by a massive planet on a wide and highly inclined orbit. into account the effects of planet migration or photoionization The Kepler-56 system features two planets on coplanar orbits of the disk as previous work has shown that these effects tend and a misaligned star (17), and in that case, a wider-orbiting to lead to even greater excitation of the stellar obliquity dur- third planet was detected through long-term RV monitoring ing the disk-hosting phase (25). The mass of the outer planet (18). Based on the mass and orbital distance of the third planet, is set equal to its currently observed value, while the mass of it is possible or even probable that the planet was responsible for planet b is set equal to 21.1 M⊕, the 3-σ upper limit that was tilting the orbital plane of the inner two planets long after the derived from RV observations (1). In general, smaller values of planets formed (19). Likewise, the HD 3167 multiplanet system Mb increase the chance of large star–disk misalignments occur- was recently found to have a misaligned star (20), but there is ring. The model also includes a companion star of mass MB in not yet any evidence for either a wider-orbiting planet or a com- a circular and inclined orbit with radius aB. We assumed the panion star. Turbulence (21) and disk torquing (22) can lead to binary’s semimajor axis is greater than the observed projected misaligned protoplanetary disks. However, retrograde orbits, as separation [aB > 113 au (1)]. We used the secular equations from observed for K2-290 A, are difficult to achieve via turbulence, ref. 25 for the dynamical evolution of planet-forming star–disk– and late infall of material will lead to a further reduction of any binary systems. To these, we added the gravitational influence of 0 0 misalignment (23). planets b and c on the star–disk ω˜sd and disk–star ω˜ds precession The unique aspect of K2-290 is that a companion star has been frequencies (equations 65 and 66 in ref. 25): detected (K2-290 B) with properties that make it a good candi- 0 date for the misalignment of the protoplanetary disk.
