Three Planets Added, Including a Nearby Super-Earth Orbiting a Sun-like Star
This week's release has three new planets and one spectrum, as well as one planet demoted to false positive planet.
One of the new planets is in the HD 20794 system located just 20 light-years from Earth. HD 20794 f (published as planet d by the discovery paper) has an eccentric, 647-day orbit that crosses into the host star's habitable zone. Learn more in the media release.
The same paper includes a published refutation of HD 20794 c, which the archive has demoted to False Positive Planet. The object's new status is reflected on its System Overview page, which will continue to serve its data.
The other new planets are WASP-132 d and K2-360 c. Click on their names to go directly to their System Overview pages, or browse all system parameters in the archive (including this week's new sets) with the Planetary Systems and Planetary Systems Composite Data tables.
We've also added a new spectrum for WASP-17 b to our Atmospheric Spectroscopy Table. (Pro Tip: You can access the table from the planet's Planetary Parameters section of its System Overview page.)

New Year, New Planets
In our first release of 2025, we are adding 8 new planets, multiple spectra for 1 planet, and updated parameters for 2 planets.
The new planets are TOI-6383 A b, TOI-5688 A b, TOI-4504 b, c & d, KMT-2024-BLG-1044L b, KMT-2022-BLG-2286L b, and KMT-2023-BLG-1743L b.
The systems with updated parameters are HD 113337 c and HD 38529 c.
The new data can be accessed on the System Overview pages, or browse the updates in the Planetary Systems and Planetary Systems Composite Data tables.
We have added newly published JWST spectra for the hot super-Earth L 168-9 b, which can be accessed via the Atmospheric Spectroscopy Table.
