Are there planets orbiting other stars? This question could only be answered with "Yes" in 1995. Since then, large telescopes and space probes have been searching for them. Almost 2,000 exoplanets are now known. 20 years after the first discovery, this book takes a detailed look at the current state of affairs: what types of exoplanets are known, how are they being searched for today, and why is it so difficult to discover a second Earth?
