MOA-2008-BLG-379L b: A Microlensing Discovery

MOA-2008-BLG-379L is a K-type star with a reported mass estimate of 0.56 solar masses, smaller than the Sun's. It lies 10800 light-years away and hosts one known planet, found by microlensing in 2013.

That planet, MOA-2008-BLG-379L b, has a reported mass estimate of 1300 Earth masses, larger than Earth's and roughly 4.09 times Jupiter's mass. No orbital period is reported for MOA-2008-BLG-379L b.
