Characteristics of Exoplanets

1.Exoplanets comes in a wide variety of sizes, from has giants larger than Jupiter to small rocky planets about
as big around as earth and mars.

2.They can be hot enough to boil metal or locked in deep freeze.

3.They can orbit their stars so tightly that a year lasts only a few days and they can orbit two suns at once…

This characteristic are important because a huge planet beyond the solar system has an upper atmosphere hot
enough to boil iron.The water vapour in a planets atmosphere behaves in predictable ways depending on its
atmosphere.While cool water blocks specific wavelengths of light ,vapour at higher temperatures causes a
glow.
