Technology term
Direct Imaging of Exoplanets
The detection of light coming from an exoplanet as a spatially separate source from its host star. Because starlight is overwhelmingly brighter, the method uses high-contrast optics, coronagraphs, adaptive optics, or interferometry and is best suited to certain large, young, or widely separated planets.
