Planets and Their Stars

Description
This figure shows the separation
between extrasolar planets and their
stars. The corresponding star names
are given on the left of each line. Note
that many systems have giant planets
that orbit much closer than 1 AU from
their stars. (MJ is shorthand for the
mass of Jupiter.) For comparison, the
solar system is shown at top.
