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 2024 is a list of confirmed exoplanets that were first reported in 2024. For exoplanets detected only by radial velocity , the listed value for mass is a lower limit.
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 ...
The asteroid's provisional designation as a minor planet, "2024 YR 4", was assigned by the Minor Planet Center when its discovery was announced on 27 December 2024. [2] 2024 indicates the discovery year, the first letter, "Y", indicates that the asteroid was discovered in the second half-month of December (16 to 31 December) of that year, and "R 4" indicates that it was the 117th provisional ...
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 first known planet to be discovered with the transit method was OGLE-TR-56b. The first planetary transit observed (by already known exoplanet) was caused by HD 209458 b . The most massive transiting exoplanet is KELT-1b which masses 27.23 M J (making it a brown dwarf ) while the least massive is Kepler-42d which masses less than 0.003 M J ...
