# The KMT-2022-BLG-1818L system

KMT-2022-BLG-1818L is a star in Sagittarius, 17 286 ly away, with 2 known planets. Their orbits run from 2.60 to 13 AU. All of them were detected by microlensing.

## The planets, innermost first

| Planet | Orbit (AU) | Period | Radius | Mass | Equilibrium T |

Every figure is the planet's composite parameter from the [NASA Exoplanet Archive (Planetary Systems Composite Parameters)](https://exoplanetarchive.ipac.caltech.edu/cgi-bin/TblView/nph-tblView?app=ExoTbls&config=PSCompPars), one consistent set per world. Semi-major axes are orbits about the star, not distances from Earth.
