Upsilon Andromedae
This is a simulated view of what the multiple planets might look like around the Upsilon Andromedae. Astronomers from four research institutions have discovered strong evidence of a trio of planets orbiting the star. It is the first planetary system reminiscent of our solar system, and the first multiple planet system ever found around a normal star (other than our sun).
