Exoplanet Catalog
This exoplanetary encyclopedia — continuously updated, with more than 5,900 entries — combines interactive 3D models and detailed data on all confirmed exoplanets. When you select a planet’s name, see a visualization of each world and system, along with vital statistics. Filter by exoplanet type, by discovery method, or by the mission or facility that found it.
key to exoplanet types
Terrestrial
A type of exoplanet made of rock or metal, smaller than Earth, possibly with oceans or atmospheres (artist's concept).
Super Earth
Super-Earth exoplanets are also rocky, but between Earth and Neptune in size (artist's concept).
Neptune-like
This variety of exoplanet is similar in size to Uranus and Neptune, with an atmosphere of mostly hydrogen or helium (artist's concept).
Gas Giant
Gas Giant exoplanets are as massive as Saturn or Jupiter, or larger; this category also includes "hot Jupiters," which orbit close to their stars (artist's concept).
Unknown
Illustration of an exoplanet whose type is unknown.
Filters
For each exoplanet listed above, the thumbnail image (artist's concept) links to an interactive 3D representation of the planet. When you get to that detail page with the 3D visualization, learn more about the exoplanet — including how long it would take to get there from Earth — by selecting the plus sign 
next to the exoplanet's name.
