Planet Around a Distant Star Found by Microlensing
OGLE-2018-BLG-0596L is a star 19400 light-years away with a mass of 0.154 solar masses. This estimate is smaller than the Sun's. One planet is known to orbit this host.
That planet, OGLE-2018-BLG-0596L b, was found in 2019 by microlensing, a method that detects a planet when its gravity briefly brightens a background star. Its mass is 13.9 Earth masses, larger than Earth's. No orbital period is reported, so the length of its year is unknown.
