A Triple-Planet system around Ups Andromedae

A Triple-Planet System Orbiting Ups Andromedae
A schematic diagram of the orbits for the 3 planets
detected around Ups Andromedae. The red dots mark the
orbits of components b,c and d. The dashed circles show
the orbits of Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars (inside to outside,
respectively) overplotted to give a sense of the scale of the
extrasolar planetary orbits.
Jupiter, at 5 AU would be outside the boundaries of this plot.
