The Kepler orrery is a group of animations created by Daniel Fabrycky and Ethan Kruse, which show exoplanets and stars discovered by the Kepler Space Telescope. 1,815 exoplanets and 726 planetary systems are in the animation.
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.
Kepler-444 (or KOI-3158, KIC 6278762, 2MASS J19190052+4138043, BD+41°3306) [10] is a triple star system, estimated to be 11.2 billion years old (more than 80% of the age of the universe), [12] approximately 119 light-years (36 pc) away from Earth in the constellation Lyra.
Kepler-62 is a K-type main sequence star cooler and smaller than the Sun, located roughly 980 light-years (300 parsecs) from Earth in the constellation Lyra.It resides within the field of vision of the Kepler spacecraft, the satellite that NASA's Kepler Mission used to detect planets that may be transiting their stars.
