The timeline of discovery of Solar System planets and their natural satellites charts the progress of the discovery of new bodies over history. Each object is listed in chronological order of its discovery (multiple dates occur when the moments of imaging, observation, and publication differ), identified through its various designations (including temporary and permanent schemes), and the ...
This list of exoplanets discovered in 2025 is a list of confirmed exoplanets that were first reported in 2025. For exoplanets detected only by radial velocity , the listed value for mass is a lower limit.
On its discovery, the planet was designated PSR 1257+12 C and later PSR B1257+12 C. It was discovered before the convention that extrasolar planets receive designations consisting of the star's name followed by lowercase Roman letters starting from "b" was established. [ 12 ]
Scientists have found a new Earth-like planet that could support alien life – just 40 light-years away. The planet is a remarkable discovery in the search for habitable worlds: it is slightly ...
Seven Earth-sized planets have been discovered orbiting a nearby star, three of which appear to be warm enough to sustain life, according to astronomers from NASA and the European Southern ...
More than 100 of the new planets are 1.2 Earth masses or smaller and are 'almost certainly rocky in nature.' NASA just discovered 1,284 new planets -- here's how many could potentially support ...
Planet type Circumbinary planet: Planet orbits a single star in a multiple star system Planet has a circumbinary orbit in a system with more than 2 stars Planet discovered by Kepler community Potentially habitable None of the above
Discovered in 1989 by Latham to have a minimum mass of 11.069 ± 0.063 M J (at 90°) and a probable mass of approximately 63.2 M J (at 10°), [271] making the former planet the first to be spotted, [272] and confirmed in 1991, it was thought to be the first discovered exoplanet until 2019 when it was confirmed to be a low-mass star with the ...
