Martin Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/050401_first_extrasolarplanet_pic.html after observing the prospective planet at GQ Lupi since 1999, they've made it definite. it is for sure a planet and not just some background object that looks like a planet. it's just a fluke they announced on 1 April. the same story is posted at cnn.com http://edition.cnn.com/2005/TECH/space/04/01/extrasolar.planet.photo/index.html
Rasori Posted April 5, 2005 Posted April 5, 2005 I have to seriously consider believing that. April 1st, and the picture was taken from the VLT--Very Large Telescope.
