KMT-2021-BLG-1150L b: A Microlensing Planet

KMT-2021-BLG-1150L is a star 12400 light-years away with a mass of 0.73 solar masses. It hosts one known planet.

That planet, KMT-2021-BLG-1150L b, was discovered in 2023 using microlensing, a method that detects a planet when its gravity briefly brightens a background star. Its mass is 280 Earth masses, larger than Earth's mass. No orbital period is reported for the planet.

A solar mass compares a star's mass with the Sun's. An Earth mass compares a planet's mass with Earth's.
