Exoplanets are planets outside our solar system. By studying them, we ultimately hope to answer the big Questions of life: 

Where did we come from? Are we alone?

“We used to think that the Earth might be unique in our galaxy. But now it seems that there are literally billions of planets with masses similar to Earth orbiting stars in the Milky Way,” --Daniel Kubas, co-lead author of the paper “One or more bound planets per Milky Way star from microlensing observations”, A. Cassan et al, Jan '12

As of  2018, there are 3,797 confirmed planets in 2,841 systems, with 632 systems having more than one planet. The discovery of exoplanets has intensified interest in the search for extraterrestrial life. 

This super chic, versatile dress is inspired by the mystery of the Universe. Featuring an ESO artist's impression of how common planets are around the stars in the Milky Way. A six-year search that surveyed millions of stars using the microlensing technique concluded that planets around stars are the rule rather than the exception.
