light from the they orbit makes it difficult to locate extrasolar planets with telescope
Light from the stars they orbit makes it difficult to see them.
Extrasolar planets are planets found orbiting stars other then our own.
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.
Most of the known extrasolar planets are more massive than Earth because massive planets are easier to detect. We have detected planets smaller than Earth.
Astronomers cannot locate extrasolar planets with telescopes because these planets are outside of our solar system and too far away for telescopes to directly observe. Instead, astronomers use indirect methods such as radial velocity and transit techniques to detect these distant planets.

Yes when technologgy improves
Yes. So far nearly 2,000 extrasolar planets have been discovered.
Most extrasolar planets are found close to their parent stars because current planet detection methods are biased towards detecting larger planets that are closer to their stars due to the limitations of technology. These close-in planets are easier to detect because they have a greater impact on their star's light or motion. As technology and detection methods improve, we are discovering more distant planets from their stars.
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.
