At the moment are two complementary concepts for this mission. The visible-light Coronograph and a formation-flying infrared Interferometer. http://www.extrasolar-planets.com/exoplanets/kepler_space_telescope.html Exoplanets Wed, 25 Mar 2009 18:58:00 +0000 The Kepler Space Telescope from NASA is designed to discover Earth-like planets orbiting other stars. The telescope is named after the German astronomer Johannes Kepler (1571-1630), which is best known for the Kepler's laws of planetary motion. http://www.extrasolar-planets.com/exoplanets/corot_space_telecope.html Exoplanets Sat, 21 Mar 2009 23:28:00 +0000 COROT stands for Convection Rotation and planetary Transits and is a big step forward for the ESA for the search after extrasolar planets. It is the first mission for the search after rocky planets around nearby stars. Furthermore it is the first European Mission for asteroseismology at other stars. extrasolar-planets.com
