They use advanced technology for detection from "summary" of Exoplanets and Alien Solar Systems by Tahir Yaqoob
Scientists have made tremendous progress in the field of exoplanet detection due to the use of advanced technology. This technology allows researchers to observe distant stars and analyze the subtle changes in their brightness that may indicate the presence of orbiting planets. One such technique is the transit method, where astronomers look for periodic dips in a star's brightness as a planet passes in front of it. Another method involves measuring the slight wobble in a star's position caused by the gravitational pull of an orbiting planet. In addition to these direct detection methods, scientists also use indirect techniques to infer the presence of exoplanets. For example, the astrometry method involves ...
