Plotting of an Exoplanet's Orbit

• by johnfairweather

  Does anyone know, if there is a Exoplanet's database, whereby clicking on a planet in the database, a picture of the planet's orbit would be drawn? I have asked this question of exoplanet.org & "The Exoplanet Encyclopaedia", but they don't have this facility.

  I like http://www.openexoplanetcatalogue.com/ to visualize the orbital properities of an exoplanet system.

  http://www.hzgallery.org/ is pretty good; it has plots of orbits combined with the location of habitable zones.

  What started me off, was this link, which I thought had been created for each exoplanet, by just clicking on a exoplanet and the orbit would be plotted.

  I think I have now found my solution, in these two links -

  http://style.org/visualized/

  http://kepler.nasa.gov/Mission/discoveries/

  Clicking on an exoplanet in this second link plots an orbit of the planet.
