PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars PLATO is a European Space Agency proposed space observatory that will use a group of photometer s to discover and characterize extrasolar planet s of all sizes and kinds around cool dwarf like our Sun and subgiant stars. The satellite is planned to be launched in 2017 or 2018 on a Soyuz rocket family Soyuz Fregat rocket, to the Earth Sun L2 Lagrangian point . It will differ from COROT and the Kepler spacecraft Kepler Mission in that it will study relatively bright stars between magnitudes 8 and 11 making it easier to confirm discoveries using follow up Doppler spectroscopy radial velocity measurements. It will have a much larger field of view than the Kepler mission which has 100 square degrees allowing it to study a larger sample of stars. The different versions of the project plan to observe stars in a 1250 3600 deg sup 2 sup area of the sky, thus tracking light curves of up to 260,000 cool dwarfs and subgiants Kepler had 25,000 stars of these types .
