OGLE-2018-BLG-0516L and Its Planet
OGLE-2018-BLG-0516L is a star 22800 light-years away with a reported mass estimate of 0.47 solar masses, smaller than the Sun's. One planet is known to orbit it.
That planet, OGLE-2018-BLG-0516L b, was discovered in 2022 by microlensing, a method that reveals a foreground object when its gravity briefly brightens a more distant background star. Its reported mass estimate is 20.1 Earth masses, larger than Earth's. No orbital period is reported for OGLE-2018-BLG-0516L b.
