The most effective way to detect planets is through transit.
The planet passes against the background of the host star and the brightness of the star decreases. This is noticeable and the radius of the planets is determined from this difference.
But it’s also not the coolest method:)
Imagine Earth as a person who always faces the Sun. Just like you always look forward, Earth always faces the Sun with one side. This happens because Earth rotates around its axis, and this rotation takes about the same time it needs to complete one orbit around the Sun.

When light hits the surface of a mirror, it is reflected so that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This principle is described by the law of light reflection.
The surface of the mirror consists of atoms or molecules (usually covered with a thin layer of metal, mo...
You know that our Universe arose due to the fact that in the early stages of the formation of it there were some violations of the laws in physics.
Violation of the laws of symmetry.
And as a result, the number of antiparticles and particles did not coincide. Thanks to the excess of particl...

Everyone knows that the Universe is approximately 13.8 billion years old.
The estimate of 13.8 billion years is not an exact number, but it represents the best estimate based on current data and theoretical models.
As technology advances and new data becomes available, estimates of the ag...
Red giants are a type of star that is in the later stages of its evolution. They usually form from stars like our Sun when the star runs out of hydrogen in its core and begins the process of expanding its outer layers.
It causes the star to increase in size, becoming much more voluminous...
Nebulae and galaxies in real photos from space usually don't have bright colors like the pictures you see on the internet.
The colors in such images are added for scientific purposes. They can represent different wavelengths of light obtained using various filters or telescopes. Each col...
