MOA-bin-1L is a Sun-like G-type star (about 0.75 solar masses, 5,778 K), 5,100 light-years from Earth. MOA-bin-1L b is a 3.70-Jupiter-mass companion, at 8.300 AU from its star, discovered in 2012 via microlensing. Microlensing detections occur when a foreground star's gravity briefly magnifies a background source, revealing planets that are otherwise too faint and distant to observe directly. MOA-bin-1L b orbits far from its host star. At roughly 5,100 light-years, MOA-bin-1L lies far beyond the nearest stars yet remains reachable to large survey telescopes. Microlensing events are fleeting, but they uniquely probe cold, distant planets that other methods rarely detect.
