About this world
KMT-2021-BLG-0119L b is a gas giant orbiting KMT-2021-BLG-0119L, a star 10.2 thousand light-years from Earth. It is about 1.1 times the size of Jupiter (its size estimated from its mass) and holds 5.5 Jupiter masses.
At its size it almost certainly keeps a deep envelope of hydrogen and helium.
It was discovered in 2022 by microlensing with KMTNet. A foreground star's gravity magnifies a background star; a planet adds a blip.
