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 2023 is a list of confirmed exoplanets that were first reported in 2023. For exoplanets detected only by radial velocity, the listed value for mass is a lower limit. See Minimum mass for more information. Name Mass (M J) Radius (R J) Period (days) Semi-major axis (AU) Temp. (K) Discovery method Distance (ly) Host star mass (M ☉) Host star temp. (K ...
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 petition was unsuccessful in renaming TOI-1338 b, however, the International Astronomical Union announced that the minor planet 1980 RE1 was given the permanent name Sophiexeon in June 2021. [13] In June 2023, a second circumbinary planet within the system was announced to have been discovered, named BEBOP-1c. [14]
