The ECWG's rules for naming exoplanets are identical to those adopted by the Minor Planet Center for minor planets. [2] Names are a single word consisting of sixteen characters or less, pronounceable in some language, non-offensive, and not identical to existing proper names of astronomical objects. [3]
First evidence for exoplanet to receive later confirmation. First exoplanets to be confirmed PSR B1257+12 B PSR B1257+12 C: PSR B1257+12: 1992 First super-Earths. [1] These exoplanets orbit a pulsar. First confirmed exoplanet around normal star 51 Pegasi b: 51 Pegasi: 1995 First convincing exoplanet discovered around a Sun-like star. [2]

The first such project (NameExoWorlds I), in 2015, regarded the naming of stars and exoplanets. [1] 573,242 votes were submitted by members by the time the contest closed on October 31, 2015, and the names of 31 exoplanets and 14 stars were selected from these. [2] Many of the names chosen were based on world history, mythology and literature. [3]
This list of exoplanets discovered in 2019 is a list of confirmed exoplanets that were first observed during 2019. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] For exoplanets detected only by radial velocity, the listed value for mass is a lower limit.
The closest exoplanet around a solitary star. Also located in the second closest star system to the Sun, after Alpha Centauri. [6] Not to be confused with the disproved planet Barnard's Star b of 2018, which shared the same name.
