	Extrasolar Visions :: Index
		Discussions about the methods used to detecting extrasolar planets, as well as the present and future projects that employ those methods.
		Discussions about the formation, physical properties, chemistry, and atmospheres of extrasolar planets.
		Here's where I post general news about Extrasolar Visions, including new sections, new planets, and new artwork.

	Venus Transit and the Search for Extraterrestrial life
		Since the first evidence for the existence of an extrasolar planet in fact came from the observation of its transit in front of a star astronomers in many places are now preparing themselves to use the upcoming Venus Transit as a testing ground for developing methods for detecting small, earth-size, planets revolving around foreign suns.
		Since the variation in the output of light followed the same cycle as the perturbation in the stellar position the existence of an extrasolar planet was for the first time proved in 1999 by observing what in fact was a transit in front of a foreign sun.
		In science it should be possible to make predictions about the future and the Venus Transit of 1639 was maybe its first tangible success.

		The Venus Transits of 1761 and 1769 provided an excellent opportunity for this mentality and the task defined by Edmund Halley, the discoverer of Halley1s comet, to use these transits for measuring the distance to the sun came to be the first international collaboration project in science.
		By the time of the next pair of Venus Transits, in 1761 and 1769, Isaac Newton was already in his grave and science had come to earn a place as the main, overriding paradigm of human thinking and seemed to be successful everywhere.
