Meet KMT-2018-BLG-0087L b, a fascinating exoplanet discovered in 2022 thanks to the clever technique of microlensing. Unlike planets found by telescopes staring directly at stars, this planet was spotted using a cosmic magnifying glass effect, courtesy of the Korean Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) and its eye-catching 18k Mosaic CCD camera. Orbiting the star KMT-2018-BLG-0087L, this planet remains a bit of a mystery, tucked away far beyond our solar neighborhood. Imagine a world revealed not by light it shines on its own, but by the subtle bending of starlight—a wonderful example of how astronomers can uncover hidden gems in the depths of space. While details are sparse, the discovery itself sparks curiosity and invites us to keep looking up!
