"On average, it is estimated that there is at least one planet for every star in the galaxy. That means there's something on the order of billions of planets in our galaxy alone, many in Earth's size range. These planets outside of our solar system are known as Exoplanets.
Highlighted stars are known to have, or have good prospects for, orbiting exoplanets. Once you click the ‘Explore Now’ button below, you will be able to select any of the highlighted stars to learn more about these confirmed planets and compare them to our solar system or navigate through the filters."
