2. Exo- outside, outer, out of Ayyo wut’s an exoplanet http://img11.deviantart.net/72bc/i/2013/215/e/1/exoplanets_2_by_melissasoup-d6gk0xw.png

3. Ayyo why should I care ‘bout ‘em http://orig09.deviantart.net/17b2/f/2010/277/e/8/earth_destruction_by_kallestar23-d301wgd.jpg

4. Direct imaging Radial velocity Astrometry Microlensing Ayyo so how we gonna’ find dem’ Transit

5. Ayyo so how dat transit method work tho’ As the planet crosses the star, a dip in brightness can be observed http://sites.psu.edu/tgg119/wp-content/uploads/sites/661/2013/01/OSNanimkurzloop.gif

6. Main goal: Extrapolate the radius of the planet. Ayyo, wut chu’ tryna’ do tho’ Other goal: Determine other properties of star and planet and how they affect the curve

7. Meet TrES-3B

8. Ayyo, how dat work tho’

9. Where cho’ data at

10. How chu’ calculate radius tho’ Fraction of light blocked =

11. More forms of data and stuff

12. After calculations. Radius = TrES-3b

13. http://astro.unl.edu/naap/esp/animations/transitSimulator.html

14. Important variables Radius of planet Radius of Star Mass of Star Semi-major Axis System Inclination Dem’ Secondary Objectives

15. Transit method works to determine the radius of the planet From that, a great deal of other properties can be inferred. Dat Conclusion tho’
