Forked from How often are exoplanets confirmed in the existing literature disconfirmed by measurements from Kepler?

This visualization answers “What is the distribution of confidence scores?” by plotting each Kepler exoplanet candidate as a circle, with the exoplanet disposition on the x-axis and its koi_score confidence value on the y-axis. The chart uses a strip plot to reveal the range and density of scores for each disposition category. Built with vega-lite-api and d3.v5, it loads data from a CSV of Kepler Exoplanet Search Results, encodes the fields via vl.x and vl.y, and applies custom axis styling from a separate config file. Tooltips display the kepoi_name for each point.

AI-generated description

A visualization constructed using the vega-lite-api.

The data shown here comes from NASA Kepler Exoplanet Search Results.

This chart meant to show the answer to "What is the distribution of confidence scores?".

The attribute "koi_score is a value between 0 and 1 that indicates the confidence in the KOI disposition. For CANDIDATEs, a higher value indicates more confidence in its disposition, while for FALSE POSITIVEs, a higher value indicates less confidence in that disposition".

How often are exoplanets confirmed in the existing literature disconfirmed by measurements from Kepler?

This visualization shows exoplanet candidates from NASA’s Kepler mission, plotting each object along a vertical axis of its disposition (e.g., “CONFIRMED” or “FALSE POSITIVE”). The horizontal axis is arbitrary, used only to spread points without overlap, while the large blue dot highlights exoplanets disconfirmed by Kepler despite prior literature confirmation. The chart demonstrates that such disconfirmations are rare relative to the total dataset. Built with the vega-lite-api and d3.csv, it encodes the disposition as a nominal field on the Y-axis and uses circle size to represent the KOI disposition.

Kepler’s Tally

Kepler's Tally displays exoplanet systems from NASA's Kepler mission as tiny star systems, each with planets orbiting on circular tracks. Using D3 v3 and SVG, the visualization derives a scale for semimajor axis, planet radius, and orbital period from the CSV data, then renders static orbit rings and CSS3-animated planets. The animation relies on keyframe rotations with vendor-prefixed transforms, and the planet circles use a radial gradient. Systems are sorted by overall radius to create a compact, grid-like overview.

Exoplanets

A circle-packing visualization displays the relative sizes of planets in our solar system alongside hundreds of confirmed exoplanets, with each circle’s area proportional to its radius. A quantized color scale encodes planet radius, while a tooltip reveals the exoplanet’s name, radius, and distance from its star. The data comes from the Planetary Habitability Laboratory, and the layout is computed using d3.pack with padding, rendered as SVG circles. The code filters the CSV data to separate solar-system planets from exoplanets and uses d3.scaleQuantize for color mapping.

Goldilocks Zone

This visualization plots confirmed exoplanets by mass (y-axis) against their star’s habitable zone distance (x-axis), with circle size encoding radius and color encoding temperature regime (too hot, just right, too cold). Built with React and D3 v5, it uses `scaleLinear` and `scaleLog` for the y-axis with toggle buttons, `scaleThreshold` for color, and `scaleLinear` for both x and radius scales. SVG circles render from a CSV, with custom `AxisLeft` and `AxisTop` components.

Untitled

This example visualizes the distribution of probability estimates from eight verbal uncertainty phrases (such as “Almost Certainly” and “Almost No Chance”) using kernel density estimation. Each smoothed density curve is colored with a viridis scale based on the group mean, revealing differences in central tendency and spread across categories. The visualization uses D3 v4 to load CSV data from GitHub, compute the means, and render the densities as SVG paths. The kernel density estimator applies an Epanechnikov kernel, while axes, gridlines, and labels are drawn with `d3.axisBottom`, `d3.axisLeft`, and the `d3.scaleSequential` with `d3.interpolateViridis`.

One System, Every Kepler Planet

Every Kepler planet from the dataset orbits a common center in one synchronized system. The visualization plots each planet’s semimajor axis as distance from the center and scales its radius logarithmically, while CSS animation duration is set from its orbital period. The SVG graphic uses D3’s `d3.scale.linear` for axis, radius, and time mapping, and each planet is a separate SVG with a rotating CSS animation. Data is loaded asynchronously via `d3.csv` from `planets.csv`.

KDE Joyplot w/ rugplot x axis

A KDE joyplot displays the smoothed probability distributions of three chemical measurement groups (BmdA, BmdB, BmdC) as stacked density curves, with a rug plot along the x-axis for each group. The chart highlights distribution shape, spread, and differences across the three response variables. The visualization is built with D3 v4 and Underscore.js, using `d3.area` with Catmull-Rom curve interpolation to render each KDE path, `kernelDensityEstimator` and `kernelEpanechnikov` functions to compute densities, and orange tick marks beneath each curve to show individual data points. The SVG output uses a band scale for the y-axis grouping and linear scales for both x and density values.

Kepler Exoplanet Search Results

This example displays basic file metadata from the NASA Kepler Exoplanet Search Results dataset, showing the CSV’s size in kilobytes, row count, and column count in large text. It uses the `d3.csv` method to load and parse the remote CSV file from a GitHub gist, then accesses the parsed data’s `length` and `columns` properties. The code also includes commented alternatives using `fetch` with `async`/`await` and a nested promise “pyramid of doom,” illustrating different asynchronous loading patterns with D3 v5.
