  We present the first trigonometric parallax and distance for a young
planetary mass object. A likely TW Hya cluster member, 2MASSW J1207334-393254Ab
(hereafter 2M1207Ab) is an M8 brown dwarf with a mid to late L type planetary
mass companion. Recent observations of spectral variability have uncovered
clear signs of disk accretion and outflow, constraining the age of the system
to <10 Myr. Because of its late spectral type and the clearly youthful nature
of the system, 2M1207b is very likely a planetary mass object. We have measured
the first accurate distance and luminosity for a self-luminous planetary mass
object. Our parallax measurements are accurate to <2 mas (1sigma) for 2M1207Ab.
With 11 total epochs of data taken from January 2006 through April 2 007 (475
images for 2M1207Ab), we determine a distance of 58.8+-7.0 pc (17.0{+2.3}{-1.8}
mas, 1.28sigma) to 2M1207Ab and a calculated luminosity of 0.68-2.2x10^-5 Lsun
for 2M1207b. Hence 2M1207Ab is a clear member of the TW Hya cluster in terms of
its distance, proper motions, and youthful nature. However, as previously noted
by Mohanty and co-workers, 2M1207b's luminosity appears low compared to its
temperature according to evolutionary models.
