Low mass planet "detected"

There are suggestions that a 3-Earth-mass planet (given the designation MOA-2007-BLG-192Lb) has been discovered orbiting a brown dwarf "star" (the ultra-cool star has a mass just 6 percent of the Sun). I'm not so convinced.. but if you want to learn more take a read of [www.sciencedaily.com].
