Of the exoplanets found, the vast majority are gaseous bodies.
However, that does not mean the majority are. That is just the majority we have found so far.
The exoplanets called "Hot Jupiters."
There are no exoplanets in our solar system. By definition, an exoplanet is a planet that is not in our solar system.
As of now, there have been no confirmed reports of exoplanets orbiting Procyon. However, it is possible that there may be undetected exoplanets around this star waiting to be discovered through further observations.
European astronomers have discovered thousands of new exoplanets. The European Space Agency's Cheops mission, for example, has discovered over 50 confirmed exoplanets so far. Other European efforts, like the European Southern Observatory's HARPS instrument, have also contributed significantly to the discovery of exoplanets.
Now we know of 861 exoplanets, with several thousand awaiting confirmation

"The 3" is just plain wrong; much more than 3 exoplanets have been found so far.
about 403.

Exoplanets are currently being detected using various methods, including the transit method (detecting the decrease in a star's brightness as a planet passes in front of it), the radial velocity method (measuring the wobble of a star due to the gravitational pull of an orbiting planet), and the direct imaging method (taking pictures of exoplanets themselves). Other techniques like microlensing and astrometry are also used to detect exoplanets.
Some recommended books on exoplanets for those interested in learning more about these distant worlds include "Exoplanets: Diamond Worlds, Super Earths, Pulsar Planets, and the New Search for Life Beyond Our Solar System" by Michael Summers and James Trefil, "Exoplanets: Hidden Worlds and the Quest for Extraterrestrial Life" by Donald Goldsmith, and "The Planet Factory: Exoplanets and the Search for a Second Earth" by Elizabeth Tasker.
