Since the first discovery of a planet outside our solar system 30 years ago, thousands more have been found. At first, discoveries of the new "exoplanets" trickled in, with each new planet grabbing headlines and bringing wonder to people around the world.
Now, the NASA Exoplanet Archive , an official catalog for exoplanets housed at Caltech's IPAC astronomy center, has officially hit a new milestone: 5,000 exoplanets.
