I agree exoplanet support would be a cool feature to have! :brows I've been looking into it, although it might take some time to actually implement properly. Many stars which have exoplanets are dim, and therefore aren't even in Astrolog's extended list of over 1000 stars. For those stars in the list which do have exoplanets, we need accurate data over time for their transits. Once we have the data, then charts that display fixed stars could flag them as being prominent in influence, if an exoplanet is transiting it at the time.

Cruiser1,

Maybe you can investigate a service of NASA EXOPLANET SCIENCE INSTITUTE
https://exoplanetarchive.ipac.caltech.edu/index.html

Otherwise, I use - to generate ephemeris
