Only pulsar with a multiplanetary system, and first exoplanets and multiplanetary system to be confirmed. [121] [122] Star with dimmest apparent magnitude to have a multiplanetary system. Kepler-62: Lyra: 18 h 52 m 51.060 s +45° 20′ 59.507″ 13.75 [123] 990: K2V [123] 0.69: 4925: 7: 5: Planets e and f orbit in the habitable zone. [123] [124 ...
This list contain only confirmed planets. Many candidate planets were decected via astrometry, including Gliese 65 Ab (which would be the nearest planet detected by this method, if confirmed), 9,698 candidates shown in a paper [1] as well as many more detected via Hipparcos-Gaia astrometry in another studies.

There are eight planets within the Solar System; planets outside of the solar system are also known as exoplanets. Artist's concept of the potentially habitable exoplanet Kepler-186f. As of 14 February 2025, there are 5,834 confirmed exoplanets in 4,356 planetary systems, with 977 systems having more than one planet. [1]
Beta Pictoris b is a super-Jupiter, an exoplanet that has a radius and mass greater than that of the planet Jupiter.It has a temperature of 1,724 K (1,451 °C; 2,644 °F), most likely due to its dusty atmosphere and mass (normally it would be much colder).
Kepler-9 holds the first multiplanetary system discovered using the transit method. It is also the first planetary system where transiting planets were confirmed through transit timing variations method, allowing to calculate the masses of planets. [10] The discovery of the planets was announced on August 26, 2010. [9]
Multiplanetary system with largest mean semi-major axis (planets are farthest from their star) TYC 8998-760-1: b, c: 1 TYC 8998-760-1 b and c have a semi-major axis of ~162 and ~320 AU, respectively. [1] Multiplanetary system with smallest range of semi-major axis (smallest difference between the star's nearest planet and its farthest planet ...
An artist's rendition of Kepler-62f, a potentially habitable exoplanet discovered using data transmitted by the Kepler space telescope. The list of exoplanets detected by the Kepler space telescope contains bodies with a wide variety of properties, with significant ranges in orbital distances, masses, radii, composition, habitability, and host star type.
The name Kepler-90 derives directly from the fact that the star is the catalogued 90th star discovered by Kepler to have confirmed planets. [ 6 ] The whole star and planet system is designated by just "Kepler-90", without a postfix, with Kepler-90A specifically referring only to the star, if needed for clarity.
