Currently we know of more than 5000 #exoplanets #discovered using a variety of techniques and survey instruments. So far most have been found using the #TransitMethod where we look for tiny dips in #starlight as one of its #planets passes in front of it. However this method tends to more easily pick out planets that are large (like #Jupiter) and close in to their #HostStar - making them #HotJupiters. We have no planets like that in our #SolarSystem, but there are other methods we can use. (2/n)
