3 exoplanets were recorded by hubble images in 1998 but were not visible back then due to lack of powerful filtering capabilities. The situation has changed now and the picture reveals new planets.
It also gives the planets positions in 1998 and they have moved(of course) with respect to more recent images, allowing their motion to be understood.
