Scientific paper

We present photometry of the transiting exoplanetary systems HD 209458, HD 189733 and HAT-P1-b obtained during 2004 2006 by the MOST (Microvariablity and Oscillations of STars) satellite. The advantageous vantage point of MOST allows continuous coverage of certain stars for up to 8 weeks. This results in unique datasets we have used to investigate stellar activity and rotation of the host stars, the albedos of the hot Jupiters, searches for transits at other periods by planets approaching Earth radius, and timing measurements of the known transits to search for planets of Earth mass and less.
