The Hubble and Keppler space telescopes are detecting exoplanets
Not directly. Exoplanets are generally too small and dim to be seen directly, at interstellar distances, especially since they are hidden by the glare of their parent star. Only a handful of planets have been imaged directly, and most of those were detected using infrared rather than visible light.
This question is being awnswered in 2014 so it is as of 2014.1,653 dumbhead.
There are no exoplanets in our solar system. By definition, an exoplanet is a planet that is not in our solar system.
Now we know of 861 exoplanets, with several thousand awaiting confirmation
Not that we know of.
Yes. They are called "exoplanets" and they orbit other stars. They have only been detected recently.
Well, currently they enjoy hanging around in museums, and underground..... Well, currently they enjoy hanging around in museums, and underground.....

The current planets being discovered are called "Exoplanets" or "Extrasolar Planets" which means they are planets found outside of our solar system. New ones are constantly being discovered. We are currently getting closer to discovering one within the habitable zone of another star.

False. No planet has been directly observed. All planets (exoplanets) have been detected using non direct methods or inferred methods.
Try reinstalling the drivers.
exoplanets
"The 3" is just plain wrong; much more than 3 exoplanets have been found so far.
