Video by Alan Zucconi.

All confirmed exoplanets, appearing as they are being discovered or announced.
Each frame is rendered from London, at midnight.
Exoplanets might seem to jump twice a year due to switch to and from DST.

The size of each dot is proportional to the exoplanets radius.
The colour and glowing are proportional to its temperature (white if unknown).
Exoplanets in the habitable zone glow bright green.
Kepler's field of view is clearly visible towards the end.
