The Microlensing System OGLE-2008-BLG-355L

OGLE-2008-BLG-355L is a star 22200 light-years away with a reported mass estimate of 0.37 solar masses, smaller than the Sun's. One planet is known to orbit it.

That planet, OGLE-2008-BLG-355L b, was discovered in 2014 by microlensing, a method that reveals a planet through the way its gravity bends light from a background source. Its reported mass estimate is 1500 Earth masses, larger than Earth's and roughly 4.72 times Jupiter's mass. No orbital period is reported.
