Because they're extremely far away, and they're almost impossible to see visually because the star itself blocks out any light reflected by those planets. However, it is possible to detect them. One simple way is by seeing how the star's light diminishes when one or more of those planets pass in front of them. Or, if their orbits aren't lined up right for us to observe this, we can detect the subtle gravitational "wobble" caused by the presence of those planets. It's a difficult and time-consuming process, but it has paid off - we now know of hundreds of these "exo-planets."
Such planets:* Are very faint, i.e., they emit very little light.
* Are outshone by the stars they orbit, which are very close (in angular distance) to the planets.
For roughly the same reason that you might find it difficult to study a mosquito
that's circling an inch from a street light 10 blocks away.
Extra solar (or Exo) planets are planets that do not orbit the Sun. Planets in our solar system orbit the Sun.

Scientists are currently using mirror telescopes in space that do not have to deal with light pollution and are more clear than lens telescopes to take pictures of the solar system. They are also using radio telescopes to try and discover extra terrestrial life.

Name the planets that do not exist in the solar system
extra solar planets are not bright compared to the stars they orbit
Hundreds of extra-Solar planets have been detected already.
Extra solar planets are planets that is outside of our solar system.
No Earth-like planets have been discovered yet, but our best telescopes are (so far!) incapable of locating any extra-solar planets that small. With the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope, this may change.

I'm not sure that carbon dioxide is very useful, but oxygen certainly is. Oxygen would strongly indicate the presence of life! I mean a significant amount of oxygen, of course.

yes, for example us and the rest of the planets in the solar system. to date there are also approx 400 extra solar planets discovered (planets beyond our solar system)
Inner planets
extra terestrial is life on other planets.. so no
