Joan, I noticed the same thing. I think it might be a typo. It shows HR 8799 in one place and HF 8799 later down. All the more reason theses names has to go! For the planets I was thinking of fast food chains…

Houston, I have a problem. Is the parent star called HR 8799? Are the planets called HF 8799b, c, and d?

This discovery is very exciting.
Here are some weired names they might like. Gluextalia, Exclarileus, Gladilea, Exclaria, Leoren, Excis, Treugo, Neubloda, Treuscia, Migherta, De Lushia, Earthania.

Yeah sounds like names for planets or galaxies.

There is a nice image gallery of historic photos.
Unfortunately, one mentions a Hubble Space Telescope
image of Supernova 1987A taken in 1987. HST was launched
in 1990! The photo is of dust and excited gas which is
re-emitting light from the explosion, and was taken several
years later.
