As previously mentioned, almost all of the 188 known
extrasolar planets are superjovan planets that
make Jupiter look like the runt of the litter.
The few that are not were found by gravitational
lensing, and are thus more than 100,000 light
years away.
The stars on the Astropolitical map are the stars
within about 50 light years of the Sun, omitting
the spectral class M stars which are unlikely
to be host to human-habitable planets.
(Years after I made the astropolitical map,
I finally obtained a copy of the HabCat
database, which further limits the
type of human habitable stars.
