SUMMARY:Exoplanets science: moving forward 
DESCRIPTION:Exoplanets science: moving forward \nDr. Didier Queloz\n\nThe d
 iscovery of new planets beyond our solar system, in particular the  detect
 ion and characterization of other habitable planets similar to the  Earth,
  is a fascinating intellectual adventure.  The completely  unexpected char
 acteristics of exoplanets are capturing the imagination  and interest of t
 he scientific community and the general public.  More  recently the large 
 population of Super-Earth planet questions the  universality of our Solar 
 System as a typical planetary system. While the quest to find bodies simil
 ar to the Earth is still on going,  the first spectra of exoplanets have b
 een taken, signaling the shift  from an era of discovery to one of physica
 l and chemical  characterization. This talk will provide an overview of cu
 rrent outcomes  of planet programs as well as its limitation and prospects
  to move  forward.
