First photos revealing planets outside our solar system

It’s time to find out what lies beyond our solar system. But until we get to travel there, we can take some nice pictures. “We” in this case are two teams of astronomers who have succeeded in taking the first images of planets orbiting other stars. Using complicated (too complicated for us to understand) imaging techniques, they have found four such planets circling a pair of stars.

We are aware of almost 300 planets out of our solar system, but this is actually the first time we have the “photo proof”.

The main problem with photographing those planets was that the stars are too bright, making it almost impossible to detect nearby planets. The problem was solved with the help of a coronograph–a device that masks a star, in effect creating an artificial eclipse to allow, fainter, normally invisible objects in its vicinity to be detected.

It does look a bit like the eye of Sauron, the Dark Lord  !
