Exoplanet

An exoplanet or extrasolar planet is a planet outside the Solar System.

See NGTS-14Ab and Exoplanet

Jupiter

Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System.

Jupiter radius

The Jupiter radius or Jovian radius has a value of, or 11.2 Earth radii (one Earth radius equals). The Jupiter radius is a unit of length used in astronomy to describe the radii of gas giants and some exoplanets.

Methods of detecting exoplanets

Any planet is an extremely faint light source compared to its parent star.

Neptunian desert

The Neptunian desert or sub-Jovian desert is broadly defined as the region close to a star exoplanets are found.
