- lolc 8y agoI'm actually pretty confused by that chart because the bigger planets of SOL are off the side.
- DavidSJ 8y agoThe planets detected by Kepler will tend to be unusually close to their star due to its detection method. I believe that’s why Sol looks like an outlier in that regard — it’s really that the other systems are the outliers.
- lolc 8y agoCould be. Detecting smaller planets further out is less and less likely.
