Hack an exoplanet Step 5 | What are exoplanets made of?
Earth is the only place in the universe that is known to host life. When examining exoplanets and defining the possible conditions for habitability, scientists try to identify similar conditions to Earth, like temperature. Join Laetitia Delrez, Exoplanet Researcher at the University of Liege, and discover how to determine if two mysterious exoplanets, KELT-3b and TOI-560c, could be habitable from their temperatures.
This video has been developed in the context of the first ever ESA Education hackathon for secondary students: “Hack an Exoplanet”. This educational activity allows students to use real satellite data to investigate alien worlds and become exoplanet detectives for a day.

Hack an Exoplanet Step 2 | How to determine the size of an exoplanet
When an exoplanet passes in front of its star, known as a transit, there is a dip in the light received from the star. Join Cheops Project Scientist, Maximillian Guenther, to learn how to measure the depth of the dip in the transit light curve data and discover how to determine the size of two exoplanet targets: KELT-3b and TOI-560c.

Start your Hack an Exoplanet challenge | How are exoplanets studied?
Exoplanets are planets outside our own Solar System, orbiting a star other than our Sun. Scientists use telescopes to find exoplanets and study them. Join Cheops Principal Investigator, Willy Benz, as he tells the story of exoplanets, and begin your mission to investigate two mysterious worlds: KELT-3b and TOI-560c.

Infrared webcam hack – using an infrared webcam to observe the world in a new way
This video, part of a series of ESA teaching resources called ‘Teach with space’, demonstrates an experiment that can be performed by students to observe everyday objects in infrared light. This is achieved by modifying a cheap webcam to allow it to block visible light and receive infrared light.
