Exoplanet Hunting




in 2020 NASA is continuing the search for new exoplanets like earth, maybe even life. In 2009 they made History with the first time opportunity for citizens to work with NASA and Kepler Mission survey data. Volunteers aided the search to find other planets like earth. The Opportunity helped their team look a bit more fined tune into extensive databases Kepler and Kepler's New Light Data. Dubbed the Kepler Mission and K2. Now Continuing the tradition TESS Data is available for amateur scientists to work with.

Your efforts are welcomed because of the overwhelming amount of data and the fact that people are much more likely to discover planets that the technology used sometimes may overlook. Many discoveries have already happened, citizens scientists are welcomed to work with NASA and PlanetHunters.org
