| dc.description.abstract | Our study aimed to study and characterize data on Object of Interest 5691.01, an exoplanet detected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). We remotely obtained pre-reduced ground-based data of TOI 5691.01 from the George Mason University Observatory in Fairfax, Virginia. Using AstroImageJ software and Python collaboratories, we compiled a group of photos of our target exoplanet and detected its light pattern by creating charts that detail the exoplanet’s journey through its orbit. There is a certain period when the exoplanet passes in front of its star, allowing George Mason’s Observatory Telescope to intake light rays from the star that reflected off the exoplanet. The colors of these rays are altered by the biological makeup of the exoplanet and thus give us researchers an insight into the materials and makeover of the exoplanet. This is what we attempted to discover through our research. | |
