Discover the cosmos! ... December 1, 1995 . 51 Pegasi: A New Planet Discovered . ... Humanity took one step closer to answering these questions in October 1995 when it was announced that the star 51 Pegasi harbors at least one planet. In the above picture of 51 Peg the planet is not visible - it can only be detected by noticing small changes in the star's motion. ... In the above picture the lines centered on 51 Peg are caused by the telescope itself and are not related to the star or planet. ...
