Exoplanets – Discovering New Worlds
Welcome to the Great Age of Extrasolar Planet Finding!
About this Show:
An imaginative exploration into discoveries beyond our solar system. From successful planet finder missions CoRoT, Kepler, TESS and others, detecting alien worlds is no longer science fiction!
The modern hunt for exoplanets is an adventure that began in the 20th century. It continues today as astronomers use both ground- and space-based observatories to find planets around other stars. Ultimately, this great age of discovery could lead to the detection of life beyond our solar system. This show tells the story of our search for alien worlds.
How do we find distant worlds around other suns? »EXOPLANETS – Discovering New Worlds« describes the two main methods astronomers use: the radial velocity method studies minute "wobbles" of stars, and the transit method detects eclipsing planets from flickers in a star's brightness. So far, astronomers have found thousands of worlds, ranging from hot Jupiters to super-Earths.
No extraterrestrial life has been found anywhere else – yet. The possibility of finding life drives our extrasolar planet searches. What if that life is intelligent? Has it tried to contact us?
