Claim 1: “Thanks to the Hubble telescope more than 6,000 worlds have been confirmed”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
The provided evidence confirms that the Hubble Space Telescope is used for exoplanet research and atmospheric analysis, but none of the sources provide a specific number of confirmed worlds (such as '6,000'). The evidence mentions Hubble's role in pioneering the field, but does not corroborate the specific quantitative claim.
