A Spectra-cular Milestone: More than 1,000 exoplanet spectra in the #NASAExoArchive Atmospheric Spectroscopy table, including transmission, eclipse, and direct imaging spectra. 75% were observed from space (mostly HST/JWST), and 25% from the ground!

This image montage shows the image and the spectrum of a star and an exoplanet as seen with the NACO adaptive optics instrument on ESO’s Very Large Telescope. In the spectrum (right) several artefacts from the instrument are seen, such as internal reflections, or “ghosts”, and diffraction rings. Similarly, the image of the star (left) suffers from several diffraction artefacts, which should not be confused with the real signal of the exoplanet. Credit: ESO/M. Janson

The Simpsons bus driver meme. The top panel features a cartoon bus driver with the text "Don't make me tap the sign." The bottom panel is the bus driver pointing at the sign with the text, "Due to planned maintenance, all Caltech/IPAC websites and services will be intermittently unavailable on Tuesday, Oct. 3 beginning at 7 am PDT through the rest of the day. This will affect NExScI and its archives, including the #NASAExoArchive, KOA, NEID, and ExoFOP."
