Start with the two stars we can study most closely, then open the systems they hold. Each star and system has its own field note and links to the worlds inside it.

Planetary systems

The Solar System

Eight planets, one star, and an animated diagram that follows the current date. Earth, Mars, and Saturn have deeper pages with imagery and mission data.

Proxima Centauri

Our nearest stellar neighbor, 4.24 light-years away. Two confirmed planets and one candidate orbit a small, flare-active red dwarf.
