Description

This diagramme compares the various candidate planetary systems that have been imaged for now, with our Solar System. Indicated are the star and the position of the imaged candidate planets. The probable planet around Beta Pictoris is the closest to its host star of all extra-solar planets yet imaged, and is comparable to Saturn as far as its distance is concerned. The scale is the distance between the Earth and the Sun.

A list of all candidate exoplanets directly imaged can be found at http://exoplanet.eu/catalog-imaging.php
