We can't even detect individual stars very well in other galaxies, never mind planets.

They could detect stars down to 14th magnitude, about 1500 times fainter than can be seen with the naked eye from Earth.

There aren't too many American stars in whom I detect a real person.

The finding was significant for being the first planets detected orbiting stars like Earth's Sun that were situated in stellar clusters.

Cataloging of all detected stars and galaxies.

The galaxy's larger-than-expected distance may explain why astronomers have had difficulty detecting older, fainter stars within the galaxy.

During this work he observed the same area several times and was able to detect variable stars and moving objects like planets.

A common way of detecting nearby stars is to look for relatively high proper motions.

There was considerable space between them, so Marcel could see through the assembly, could detect stars on the far side.

Follow-up Hubble space telescope deep observations of the region have detected very few stars (a few hundred).
