About this world
MOA-2011-BLG-028L b is a Neptune-like planet orbiting MOA-2011-BLG-028L, a star 24.1 thousand light-years from Earth. It is about 6 times the size of Earth (its size estimated from its mass) and holds 30 Earth masses.
At its size it almost certainly keeps a deep envelope of hydrogen and helium.
It was discovered in 2016 by microlensing with MOA. A foreground star's gravity magnifies a background star; a planet adds a blip.
