MOA-2010-BLG-073L b: A Massive World Found by Microlensing

MOA-2010-BLG-073L is a star located 9130 light-years from Earth. Its reported mass estimate is 0.16 solar masses, smaller than the Sun's. The star hosts one known planet.

That planet, MOA-2010-BLG-073L b, was discovered in 2012 by microlensing, a method in which a foreground object's gravity briefly brightens a more distant background star. Its reported mass estimate is 3500 Earth masses, larger than Earth's and roughly 11 times Jupiter's mass. No orbital period is reported for MOA-2010-BLG-073L b.
