Comments on: FIRST EXOPLANET IMAGE CONFIRMED! http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2005/04/29/first-exoplanet-imaged/ I am an astronomer, writer, and skeptic. I likes reality the way it is, and I aims to keep it that way. My real name is Phil Plait, and I run the Bad Astronomy blog.

Discoveries goes as far as before 1990 but, at the same time, were not confirmed before 1996. I mean, it always seems the first observed-confirmed exoplanet is around 51 Peg. Darn, being specific is quite a pain in the ass. Sorry my ranting around here. I always had a problem when naming the first confirmed exoplanet.
