Visions of the Future: 51 Pegasi b

NASA/JPL-Caltech, 2016

Travel Posters

While there is much debate over which exoplanet discovery is considered the "first," one stands out from the rest. In 1995, scientists discovered 51 Pegasi b, forever changing the way we see the universe and our place in it. The exoplanet is about half the mass of Jupiter, with a seemingly impossible, star-hugging orbit of only 4.2 Earth days. It is one of the space-tourism posters NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory released to the public.
