A 30 Second History of Exoplanet Exploration

I recently updated a video I’ve been showing for the last few years in public talks on exoplanets.  This shows the current population of known exoplanets, in order of discovery and coded by discovery method.

The code to generate this video is available at: https://github.com/dsavransky/miscpy/blob/master/Animaitons/exoplanet_history_anim.py

Data is from the NASA Exoplanet Archive (http://exoplanetarchive.ipac.caltech.edu/).
