Other Solar Systems Around Other Stars

Other Solar Systems Around Other Stars. Stars form around other stars, in Open Star Clusters generally Exoplanets = planets around other stars How do we discover them? How do selection effects bias our results? What are these exoplanets like? Can we detect their atmospheres, climate?.
