For a while exoplanets were all over the news as exciting new discoveries, but it's been a while since we've heard about them. Have the new discoveries stopped? Far from it! In fact, they rarely make the news today because exoplanet discovery has become so commonplace. Join us as we look at a few of the newer finds that you may not have heard about, including a planet orbiting two stars and some rocky exoplanets with obvious atmospheres.
Join us every first Friday of the month for talks on astronomy and local science topics. First Fridays at Longway Planetarium are funded in part by the Genesee County Arts Education and Cultural Enrichment Millage. Your tax dollars are at work.
