What does AST mean

ast means to know about the planets

How do waves change as they approach the shore

The sun produces energy from matter in its core through the process of

fusion

Which planet do most known extrasolar planets most resemble

Jupiter Neptune

The planet that most extrasolar planets resembles Jupiter.

Jupiter(apex)
Most of the confirmed Exoplanets are larger gaseous planets with large masses. These are easier to detect and confirm due to their size. They most resemble Jupiter, although many are thought to be much larger than our largest planet.

The farther a star is away from earth the more it is
