MOA-2022-BLG-249L b: A Microlensing Planet Around a Low-Mass Star

MOA-2022-BLG-249L is a star 6520 light-years away with a reported mass estimate of 0.18 solar masses. That estimate is smaller than the Sun's mass. One planet is known to orbit this host.

The planet, MOA-2022-BLG-249L b, was discovered in 2023 by microlensing, a method in which a foreground star's gravity briefly brightens a more distant background star. Its reported mass estimate is 4.83 Earth masses, larger than Earth's mass, but no orbital period is reported for it.
