With a mean heliocentric distance of just 0.387 AU (about 57.8 million km) and a orbit time of just under 88 days, it is not very easy to observe from Earth and never appears more than 27° from the Sun (less than the angle made by the hands of a watch at 1 o'clock). Observing Mercury Mosaic of Mercury Credit: NASA/JpL The main problem with observing Mercury from ground-based telescopes is that because it never strays far from the Sun, it can only be observed during the day, when scattered sunlight impedes clear views of the planet, or just before sunrise and after sunset, when the light we recieve from it must pass through 10 times as much atmospheric turbulence as when it is directly overhead. Unfortunately this means that even the best ground based telescopes get a worse view of it than humans can get of the moon with the naked eye each night.

The Search for the Extrasolar Planets: A Brief History of the Search, the Findings and the Future Implications Table of Contents PREFACE SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION SECTION 2: BARNARD'S STAR AND VAN DE KAMP'S PLANETS: THE BEGINNING SECTION 3: A GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE EXTRASOLAR PLANETARY WORK RECENTLY IN PROGRESS ... APPENDIX PREFACE This web page is an attempt to provide a review of humankind's quest for the discovery of planets outside our Solar System. In addition, a series of major web sites dealing with the search for extrasolar planets are listed. They are as follows: Discovery of Extrasolar Planets Extrasolar Planetary Systems Exoplanets The Extrasolar Planets Encyclopedia ... Other Worlds, Distant Stars In addition to the above sites, NASA's Origins Program is attempting to answer an important question (among others), Are there worlds like the Earth around nearby stars? If so, are they habitable, and is life as we know it present there? SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION Our solar system exists. This is an irrefutable fact. Because of our solar systems existence, the question that begets itself time and time again is whether or not planets exist around stars other than our own. Based on the size of our universe and the laws of probability, the odds are excellent that our solar system is not unique in the universe. To better appreciate the odds, it is useful to consider the size of the universe . At the present time it is estimated that 50 billion galaxies , the largest of which contain thousands of billions of stars, are visible to modern telescopes including the

UStAPS University of St.Andrews Planet Search St.Andrews Astrophysics staff: Prof.Keith Horne Prof.Andrew Collier Cameron Postdocs: Dr.Steve Kane Dr.Tim Lister Dr.Martin Dominik PhD Students: Chris Leigh Dan Bramich Khalid Alsubai , Ben Hood. Former students: Rachel Street Yianni Tsapras Colin Snodgrass HOT JUPITER SHADOWS: Doppler surveys show that 1% of nearby main sequence stars host "Hot Jupiters" in 3-4 day 0.05 AU orbits. 10% of these will have orbits close enough to edge-on for the planet to transit in front of the star. Thus 1 in 1000 main sequence stars should "wink" every 3-4 days. Jupiter transiting the Sun produces a 1% wink easy to detect by differential CCD photometry. Lower mass main sequence stars are smaller, making their winks even deeper. There are many transit searches underway worldwide. St.Andrews is pursuing both Deep and Wide transit searches. DEEP SURVEY: We use the wide-field CCD camera on the 2.5m Isaac Newton Telescope to search for hot Jupiters transiting faint stars (18 to 22 mag) in Milky Way open cluster fields (NGC 6819, 7789, 6940). WIDE SURVEY: We use small wide-angle CCD cameras to discover Hot Jupiters transiting relatively bright stars, down to 13th mag. St.Andrews is a leading member of the

The TEP network What is TEP The TEP network is a group of collaborators searching for T ransits of E xtrasolar P lanets. Our major effort is the observation of the eclipsing binary star CM-Draconis for signs of the presence of planets using the transit method . For a quick introduction to the project, read the Poster from the JENAM-95 conference . A technical introduction is given in an article in Astronomy and Astrophysics (1998, Vol 338, p 479, preprint in postscript pdf Note 30 Dec. 2002: Since the TEP project finished in 2001, this site is not being updated any longer New: Animation of the transiting planet around the star HD209458 The Transit Method (link to intro) 2002 - The TEP project has finished Follow-up observations of the remaining 3 planet candidates (see below, in entry for Sep 2000) were taken during 2001. While two of these candidates were discarded when no transits showed up during follow-up observations, for one candidate a transit-like feature appared right on time. We got excited about this, while keeping in mind that the probability for random noise to create such a feature is about 3% (this is described in more detail in Doyle et al, 2000, Astrophysical Journal, 535, 338). Indeed, during two further follow-up observations, the feature did not show up at predicted transit times and that candidate had to be discarded as well. Consequently, the TEP project did not discover any planet, but it remains as the first observational project that probed the presence of terrestrial-sized planets around any star.

Credit: Alan Stern (Southwest Research Institute), Marc Buie (Lowell Observatory), NASA and ESA In 1930, American astronomer Clyde Tombaugh made an amazing discovery: a tiny planet smaller than our moon orbiting the sun almost 5 billion kilometres away. It was named Pluto for the Roman God of the underworld, and has since been considered the ninth and final planet of our Solar System. But over the past few years, scientists have been discovering more and more objects like Pluto in the distant reaches of our Solar System. Some occupy very similar orbits, and are known as "Plutinos". In October of 2002, the biggest of these until that point was found: an object over half Pluto's diameter that astronomers have since dubbed " Quaoar " (pronounced kwa-whar) after a Native American god. Just last fall another, even larger, object was found further away from Pluto, named "

That's just one of the inadvertenty hilarious lines from PLANET OF THE APES that's taken on a comedic context over time. No one back then seemed to realize how over-the- top Charlton Heston's acting style was, but it shows now, particularly in this "Mystery Science Theater 3000" wannabe that was taken for a film masterpiece in its time, actually winning one Oscar (for makeup, no less) and being nominated for a couple others. It also spawned multiple sequels like Beneath the Planet of the Apes, Escape From the Planet of the Apes, Return of the Planet of the Apes, Beneath the Escape from the Return of the Planet of the Apes, Planet of the Apes: The Next Generation, Police Academy of the Apes... the list goes on.

WELCOME TO CHARLTON HESTON WORLD GRAPHICS LOADING PLEASE BE PATIENT! PICTURES BELOW ARE WORTH THE WAIT PLANET OF THE APES PLANET OF THE APES DIRECTOR: Franklin J. Schaffner, 1968 "Take your stinking paws off me, you damn dirty ape!" PLANET OF THE APES is an outstanding science-fiction film that spawned four sequels, an animated cartoon series, a live-action TV series, bubble-gum cards, Halloween masks, and a rash of plastic models. The original film is still quite an achievement. SYNOPSIS: "TAKE YOUR STICKING PAWS OFF MEYOU DAMN DIRTY APE!!!" "Finally, really did it! YOU MANIACS! YOU BLEW IT UP!! DAMN YOU! G*D DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!!!'" The last shot the viewer sees is the Statue of Liberty half blown up. PLANET OF THE APES is a success on many levels, with a witty, intelligent script by Rod Serling and an outstanding, hot-tempered, athletic performance from Charlton Heston makes it the number one SciFi classic for many. Roddy McDowall and Kim Hunter are excellent as a pair of sympathetic ape scientist and doctor, respectively, with John Chambers's superb latex makeup allowing them a full range of expressive facial gestures. Chambers won a special Oscar for his extraordinary makeup work. None of the sequels (BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES, ESCAPE FROM THE PLANET OF THE APES, CONQUEST OF THE PLANET OF THE APES, BATTLE FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES)
