Colour–magnitude diagrams form a traditional way of presenting luminous objects in the Universe and compare them to each other. Here, we estimate the photometric distance of 44 transiting exoplanetary systems. Parallaxes for seven systems confirm our... Read More about Colour-magnitude diagrams of transiting Exoplanets - II.
