Venerable Exoplanetary Systems, a brief history: Revelations from 100 years ago to some new discoveries via an unusual, entirely unanticipated, observational technique. The discussion will include the first ever observational evidence for the existence of an extrasolar planetary system, the first observational evidence for the existence of a differentiated extrasolar planet (i.e., one with a crust and mantle), and the remarkable discovery of objects with 100s of times larger abundances of the light elements Be and B than previously seen in any astronomical object.
