What else can I help you with?
Why do astronomers find it difficult to to locate extrasolar planets with telescope?
light from the they orbit makes it difficult to locate extrasolar planets with telescope
Why are extrasolar planets more massive than earth?
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.
What is the difference between exoplanet and extrasolar planet?
Both exoplanet and extrasolar planet are planets that are outside the solar sysytem.
What planet do most know extrasolar planets least resemble?
Uranus
Why do you think so many extrasolar planets found so far are more massive than earth?
Maybe it's because they have to be extra large to be discovered.
How many planets have been found?
There are 464 extrasolar planets, and 8 planets within our Solar System. This makes a total of 470 known planets.
Are there any extrasolar planets?
Yes. So far nearly 2,000 extrasolar planets have been discovered.
The reason that most extrasolar planets are found close to their parent stars?
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.

Is there other solar systems around the stars?
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.

What planet resembles extrasolar planets most?
About 100 extrasolar planets are thought to have been discovered. All are giants and probably most resemble Jupiter

What are three stars that have been found to have extrasolar planets?
You can find the names of some 260 different stars with planets circling them here: http://exoplanet.eu/

What two planets do extrasolar planets most resemble?
So far. Jupiter and Saturn
