- Date May 1
- Time 5 p.m.
- Location2241 Chamberlin Hall
- DescriptionNearly 300 exoplanets have been discovered in the past 13 years. Scientists know the approximate mass and orbit of each of these, and for a few there is additional information about radius, composition and temperature. Still, for most exoplanets these properties are unknown, nor is it known how they were formed or whether any others may have evolved such as the Earth.
