The first extrasolar planet found to have a density compatible with being a rocky planet is CoRoT-7b in 2009. 55 Cancri e was found to be a terrestrial planet in 2011. First super-Earth orbiting a main sequence star [NB 2] Gliese 876 d: Gliese 876: 2005 Orbits a red dwarf star. First icy extrasolar planet orbiting a main sequence star OGLE-2005 ...
Animation showing exoplanets by year from 1991 until 2022 (March) with a total of 5005 discoveries [1] An exoplanet (extrasolar planet) is a planet located outside the Solar System. The first evidence of an exoplanet was noted as early as 1917, but was not recognized as such until 2016; no planet discovery has yet come from that evidence. [2]

HD 114762 b was once considered as the first discovered exoplanet. Found in 1989 by a team led by David Latham, it is now known to be a red dwarf star. [5] In 1991 it was reported an exoplanet 10 times the mass of Earth was discovered around the pulsar, PSR B1829-10. [6]
Astrometry has been used to discover a handful number of exoplanets, mostly gas giants more massive than Jupiter. It is based on measuring a star's proper motion, and seeing how that position changes over time: a planet with a sufficiently large mass is able to gravitationally pull its host star, making its proper motion vary over large timescales.

Motion interpolation of seven images of the HR 8799 system taken from the W. M. Keck Observatory over seven years, featuring four exoplanets. This is a list of extrasolar planets that have been directly observed, sorted by observed separations. This method works best for young planets that emit infrared light and are far from the glare of the star.
