NASA finally confirmed 3o1 exoplanets by using a new machine called ExoMiner.
According to NASA, it took nearly a year for scientists to agree on how many exoplanets there are outside of the solar system. The process of establishing an exoplanet is very simple. Scientists would briefly analyze the characterization of the exoplanet and then use a machine called ExoMiner. ExoMiner was a new invention from scientists and it collects star data from previous missions such as Kepler and K2. Scientists predicted that one planet would contain at least two stars.
