Cosmic Diary - Other Planets in Our Galaxy
Cosmic Diary has a new feature article on Extra-solar planets (exoplanets) by Aude Alapini from the University of Exeter, Devon, United Kingdom. From the blurb:
"Are we alone in the Universe?" is a question we all wonder. We now know that there are no other planets like the Earth in our Solar System, so astronomers have extended their search to stars other than the Sun. These planets are called exoplanets.
