Kepler-90 Kepler-90, also designated 2MASS J18574403+4918185, is an F-type star located about from Earth in the constellation of Draco (constellation), Draco. It is notable for possessing a planetary system that has the same number of observed pla ...

with 8 confirmed planets each, followed by TRAPPIST-1 with 7 planets. The multiplanetary systems are listed below according to the star's distance from Earth. Proxima Centauri, the closest star to the Solar System, has three planets ( b, c and d). The nearest system with four or more confirmed planets is Tau Ceti, with four known. The farthest confirmed multiplanetary system is OGLE-2012-BLG-0026L, at 13,300 ly away. The table below contains information about the coordinates, spectral and physical properties, and number of confirmed (unconfirmed) planets for systems with at list 2 planets and 1 not confirmed.
