This list of exoplanets discovered in 2024 is a list of confirmed exoplanets that were first reported in 2024. For exoplanets detected only by radial velocity, the listed value for mass is a lower limit. See Minimum mass for more information.
The exoplanets were found using a statistical technique called "verification by multiplicity". 95% of the discovered exoplanets were smaller than Neptune and four, including Kepler-296f, were less than 2 1/2 the size of Earth and were in habitable zones where surface temperatures are suitable for liquid water.

The first confirmation of an exoplanet orbiting a main-sequence star was made in 1995, when a giant planet was found in a four-day orbit around the nearby star 51 Pegasi. Some exoplanets have been imaged directly by telescopes, but the vast majority have been detected through indirect methods, such as the transit method and the radial-velocity ...
The CFL and NFL competed for the same player pool in their earlier years before the CFL settled into a de facto (and from time to time formal) developmental role to its American counterpart. Dozens of professional players move between these codes' top professional leagues every year, making any attempt at a list incomplete at best.
A potentially habitable exoplanet that is roughly similar in size to Earth has been found in a system located 40 light-years away, according to a new study.
A European Space Agency satellite has observed the shiniest exoplanet ever discovered. The scorching world has reflective clouds made of silicates and titanium.
Astronomers used the Hubble Space Telescope to make a landmark discovery of water vapor in the atmosphere of a planet just twice Earth’s diameter in size.
It was the third (and most recent) exoplanet to be discovered in orbit around this star; the other two, HD 63433 b and c, were discovered in 2020. [ 1 ] [ 4 ] Orbiting its star at a distance of 0.0503 astronomical units (7,520,000 km), HD 63433 d is the innermost planet orbiting HD 63433, and completes an orbit around it just every 4 days. [ 1 ]
