Every figure is the planet's composite parameter from the [NASA Exoplanet Archive (Planetary Systems Composite Parameters)](https://exoplanetarchive.ipac.caltech.edu/cgi-bin/TblView/nph-tblView?app=ExoTbls&config=PSCompPars), one consistent set per world. Semi-major axes are orbits about the star, not distances from Earth.
