Brand New Project: Exoplanets

A brand new project has joined our Research and GSCE Projects section! 

"Until around 30 years ago, we only knew of the eight (or maybe nine !) planets around our own Sun. However, it was long thought that other stars would also contain their own planetary systems. This field of study has developed from the first discoveries back in the early 1990s until today where we know of thousands of these exoplanets.

The project, like the others on our website, is completely open-ended; you can get as much from it as you want, learn some key science regarding the topic and manipulate real astronomical data.
