About Exoplanet Catalog

An extrasolar planet catalog and reference guide. An extrasolar planet (or exoplanet) is a planet that is outside our solar system. These planets orbit other stars. The first exoplanets were discovered in the mid 1990's, but exoplanet hunting began in earnest only recently.

This catalog is kept up-to-date with the current count of exoplanets, all the latest data for each exoplanet, and the data for every parent star.

With the home screen widget, watch the exoplanet count skyrocket in the coming months as new data become available. The count at the moment is just above 500. The count by 2012 could approach 1000!

Watch each new exoplanet's mass, radius, and period trend toward that of our very own Earth. Soon astronomers will find exoplanets resembling Earth in many ways!

This app is so outdated I'll rate it 2 stars. The reason why it because it says 528 exoplanets when there's now about 3595. If you update your database, I will rate this app 4 stars.

As of September 19, 2011, 685 extra-solar planets in 563 systems have been identified. ...app shows ..528? :| Honestly I don't really want all the fluff anyways, all I'm out for is a widget that stays as up-to-date on that number as wikipedia.

"As of Sept 14 2011 there are 677 planets..." And the app showed 567. Garbage. Uninstalling.
