The use of gravitational lensing allows the OGLE survey to monitor stars at great distances from the Solar System. This image is centred on the yellowdwarf OGLE-2016-BLG-1190 (which is visible here, but only extremely faintly). That star lies at an estimated distance of 22,000 light years in the direction of the Galactic bulge, around which OGLE has detected an extremely massive companion planet or brown dwarf.
