Discover the cosmos! ... September 13, 1997 . Kepler Discovers How Planets Move . ... Explanation: Johannes Kepler used simple mathematics to describe how planets move. ... Kepler was able to use Brahe 's data to show that planets move in ellipses around the Sun ( Kepler's First Law ), that planets move proportionally faster in their orbits when they are nearer the Sun ( Kepler's Second Law ), and that more distant planets take proportionally longer to orbit the Sun ( Kepler's Third Law ). ...

... The 50 so-called exo-planets were discovered using a telescope that is found in South America. ... By looking at a star s wobble, astronomers can work out how many exo-planets are in orbit around it and how heavy they are. After studying all of the planets discovered with this telescope so far, astronomers have found that nearly half of stars that are similar to the Sun have at least one planet that is lighter than Saturn. ... But there are many, many more waiting to be found! ...

... Satellites of the planets are assigned a provisional designation (indicating year of discovery) by the Central Bureau for Astronomical Telegrams ( CBAT ) upon satisfactory demonstration of the existence of a new object. ... In the past, Comets were first given a provisional designation, consisting of the year and a lowercase letter indicating the order of discovery in the year (e.g., 1994a was the first comet discovered or recovered in 1994, 1994b the second, etc.) ... Names .. ...

... This artist's impression shows the remarkable planetary system around the Sun-like star HD 10180 five planets and evidence for two more. ... Richest Planetary System Discovered . ... This remarkable discovery also highlights the fact that we are now entering a new era in exoplanet research: the study of complex planetary systems and not just of individual planets. ... The newly discovered system of planets around HD 10180 is unique in several respects. ...

... The study of extra solar planets will be one of the most important areas of research in astronomy in this century. ... The first planets outside the solar system were found in 1992 around the millisecond pulsar PSR B1257+12 by Alex Wolszczan at the Arecibo Observatory . ... Three space missions based on this principle (MOST, COROT and Kepler ) have already been launched or approved, and have the last one at least has the potential to find Earth-sized planets. ... SIM ( NASA ) is one of such missions...

Now that well over 100 planets have been discovered, we no longer need to ask the question "Are there planets out there?" ... The objective of XO is to find additional hot-Jupiters (like HD 209458b) that transit stars bright enough for detailed follow-up studies to be done with existing telescopes such as HST, Keck, and the VLT. ... Transit observations by themselves provide no information about the mass of the planet and radial velocity studies can yield only minimum masses. ...

... It is also our solar system's tenth planet. ... The astronomers first imaged 2003 UB313 October 21, 2003 -- but the ice world moved so slowly along its orbit it eluded software designed to look for moving targets until the scientists reanalyzed their images January 5, 2005. ... But Brown's crowning of 2003 UB313 as a tenth planet has rankled some astronomers and reinvigorated the simmering debate over how to define a planet -- and if any scientifically useful definition can include Pluto. ...
