context_page_description: The Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment is a Polish astronomical project based at the University of Warsaw that runs a long-term variability sky survey. Main goals are the detection and classification of variable stars, discoveries of the microlensing events, dwarf novae, studies of the Galaxy structure and the Magellanic Clouds. Since the project began in 1992, it has discovered multitude of extrasolar planets, together with a first planet discovered using transit method and gravitational microlensing method. The project from its inception is led by Prof. Andrzej Udalski.
context_section_description: The Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) is a Polish astronomical project based at the University of Warsaw that runs a long-term variability sky survey (1992-present). Main goals are the detection and classification of variable stars (pulsating and eclipsing), discoveries of the microlensing events, dwarf novae, studies of the Galaxy structure and the Magellanic Clouds. Since the project began in 1992, it has discovered multitude of extrasolar planets, together with a first planet discovered using transit method (OGLE-TR-56b) and gravitational microlensing method. The project from its inception is led by Prof. Andrzej Udalski.
