The detection and characterization of exoplanets have made huge progressessince the first discoveries in the late nineties. In particular, theindependent measurement of the mass and radius of planets, by combining thetransit and radial-velociy techniques, allowed exploring their density andhence, their internal structure. With CoRoT (2007-2012), the pioneering CNESspace-based mission in this investigation, about thirty new planets werecharacterized. CoRoT has enhanced the diversity of giant exoplanets anddiscovered the first telluric exoplanet. Following CoRoT, the NASA Keplermission has extended our knowledge to small-size planets, multiple systems andplanets orbiting binaries. Exploring these new worlds will continue with theNASA/TESS (2017) and ESA/PLATO (2024) missions.
