Other Worlds
When Mr. Gianforte came in to talk to us I learned a lot of things about space that I didn't know before. For instance we talked about exoplanets. I learned that there are 494 planets or exoplanets that are not in our solar system. He also told us that astronomers are looking for other planets that could support life on them, which is called astrobiology. He also talked about planetary transit which is when a planet crosses in front of a star, which is how we tell there is a planet orbiting that star. These are just a few of the many things Mr. Gianforte told us when he came to visit.
