It reflects the inclination of the exoplanets' orbits around their parent stars. We can actually measure this based on the light curve of a star as a planet passes in front of it. Here's a quick explanation of how that's don

Really like this. We're discovering new exoplanets so quickly. Wanted to share a similar webgl visualization I made, with colors that indicate the temperature range/habitability of the planet rather than spectral class: http:&#

I created this visualization that shows all exoplanets superimposed on our solar system with size, orbit, and temperature data: http://www.asterank.com/galaxies/ Here's the code that I use to suck down exoplanet d

Unfortunately, no real measurements. I would love to do it again with a thermometer and other interesting payloads. The potato looked generally fine when we recovered it, but not incredibly appetizing, as its insides had been exposed to ai
