:CHECKLIST
Known and unknown, as the archive has it
[ ] A measured radius. Yes.
[ ] A measured mass. Yes.
[ ] A density, which decides rock or gas. No.
[ ] A semi-major axis. Yes.
[ ] A temperature someone observed rather than calculated. No.
[ ] An eccentricity, so the orbit shape is known. No.

:PATH
What seeing it actually provides
Photons from the planet itself rather than an inference from the star.

:NOTE
Found by Las Campanas Observatory in 2010.

:NOTE
This is one of the rare planets that has actually been photographed. Fewer than a hundred of the thousands known were found this way, and they are mostly young giants far from their stars.
