HD 5388 b (also known as HIP 4311 b) was thought to be an extrasolar planet orbiting the F-type main sequence star HD 5388, located approximately 175 light years away in the constellation Phoenix. It takes over two years to orbit the star at a semimajor axis of 1.76 AU with an eccentricity of 0.40.[2] It was announced on October 19, 2009, together with 29 other planets.
This planet has been disproved and shown to be a brown dwarf.[3]
