ASTRONOMY
EXOPLANETS by Rodney Buckland from the Open University. An exoplanet is any planet beyond our solar system. Most of them orbit other stars, but some free-floating exoplanets, called rogue planets, are untethered to any star. We’ve confirmed more than 5,800 exoplanets out of the billions that we believe exist. Guests are very welcome.
