Abstract We map the planetary wake associated with the embedded protoplanet creating the CO kink in the disk of HD 163296. We show that the wake can be traced by a series of correlated perturbations in the peak velocity map. The sign change of the perturbations across the disk’s major axis confirms that the wake induces predominantly radial motion, as predicted by models of planet–disk interaction. These results provide the first direct confirmation of planet wakes generated by Lindblad resonances. Mapping the wake provides a constraint on the disk aspect ratio, which is required to measure the mass of the planet.
