NASA has confirmed via a recent Twitter post that 5,235 exoplanets have been discovered to date. In 2022 alone, astronomers across the globe discovered over 200 planets outside our solar system. This is a commendable feat considering the fact that less than 5,000 exoplanets were identified when the year began. The space agency is looking forward to uncovering more unknown worlds in 2023.
