Its simple! They use telescopes instead!
light from the they orbit makes it difficult to locate extrasolar planets with telescope
extra solar planets are not bright compared to the stars they orbit
About 100 extrasolar planets are thought to have been discovered. All are giants and probably most resemble Jupiter
Teams of astronomers have studies all possible planets.
You can find the names of some 260 different stars with planets circling them here: http://exoplanet.eu/

Planets are considerably smaller than their parent stars, also they emit no light and are very close to the star. With all this combined, separating between the two with a telescope is very difficult.

Extrasolar planets are planets found orbiting stars other then our own.
Yes. So far nearly 2,000 extrasolar planets have been discovered.
extrasolar planers are not bright compared to the stars they orbit For approximately the same reason that it's difficult to spot a mosquito circling a street light that is 5 miles away, with a telescope.
Yes, there are over 200 more planets outside the solar system, these planets are called extrasolar planets. There are also more then 170 solar systems inside of the Milky Way, on average astronomers find around 25 new planets a year.
Yes, hundreds of "extrasolar" planets, i.e., planets outside our own Solar System, have already been discovered.Yes, hundreds of "extrasolar" planets, i.e., planets outside our own Solar System, have already been discovered.Yes, hundreds of "extrasolar" planets, i.e., planets outside our own Solar System, have already been discovered.Yes, hundreds of "extrasolar" planets, i.e., planets outside our own Solar System, have already been discovered.
