How can astronomers confirm the existence of an exoplanet if they can't see the planet? A. Measurements of changes in sound B. Measurements of changes in light C. Sending satellites to take pictures D. Sending telescopes for closer views

B seems the most logical

B is correct becuase the way astronomers find planets is that they observe a star for quite some time and if they see dips meaning a time when light is blocked they will see that there is something there once they see this dip they check and see if it has a pattern to it and if so they determine it is a planet.... I just love astronomy xD
