Comment We've found LOTS of these! (Score 4) 226

From browsing this thread, I have the idea that this discovery of distant planets is being taken as a first-time thing by some people. I thought it imperative to fill that void in the collective knowledge base.

We've found approx. 35 such planets to date: here's one found in Nov 1999, a whole system found in April 1999, one in 1998, and here, and here...

We've found Jupiter-sized planets at Jupiter-like distances, which is neat because it means we could detect our own solar system...
