...data had been collected by Harvard researcher Heather A. Knutson and Assistant Professor of Astronomy David Charbonneau...
...Charbonneau was less optimistic, saying that Barman did not conclusively prove water’s existence in the atmosphere of HD209458b...
Knutson agreed, saying that Barman’s analysis appears to account for some, but not all, of the color-dependent features in the data that she and Charbonneau collected from the Hubble Space Telescope last year...
...Charbonneau led a team in making the first detection of an atmosphere on an extrasolar planet, using a technique similar to transmission spectroscopy...

CORRECTION: The April 13 news article "Water Found in Planet's Skies" incorrectly quoted astronomer Travis Barman. He said that Assistant Professor of Astronomy David Charbonneau had discovered an extrasolar planet's atmosphere, not that Charbonneau had discovered an extrasolar planet...
