But now with new developments in astronomy scientists have been able to identify indications of strong magnetic fields around remote planets orbiting other stars. The findings are changing the way scientists think about planet formation, planet evolution and interactions with the planet's host star. Researchers are revealing the properties of planets by studying radiation and interactions with stars, that they could not measure directly in the past. This discovery opens the way to test the potential habitability and atmospheric protection to life on other worlds, outside our solar system.
