The presence of an extrasolar planet can be revealed when it passes in
front of its host star, reducing the star's apparent brightness by
˜1%. We are monitoring a large sample (of order 10^{4}) of stars
using our own 0.5 m telescope at Siding Spring Observatory, Australia,
in search of such transiting planets.
