Only several thousand out of a trillion or more exoplanets in our galaxy have been confirmed. Characterizing exoplanets requires clever modeling and detective work to uncover their environments.
Using light collected through telescopes, astronomers can discern details about exoplanets, such as the wobbling motion of a star indicating an unseen world accompanying it.
Astronomers combine ground- and space-based observatories with datasets to study exoplanets like HD 104067, revealing crucial information about these distant worlds.
