In recent years, the exoplanet searching remain a hot topic among cosmology and astrophysics. In this case, this paper analyzes the methods and facilities used to detect exoplanets. To be specific, 7 main methods are discussed and transit method contributes most in the detection. However, some methods need restrict condition to happen and some has a high rate of misjudge. With regard to facilities, space telescopes are widely used and provide most data and images. Nevertheless, the quality of spectra is not enough so that some theory of early universe cannot be test yet. Previsou studies mainly focus on galaxies with high red shift which are old and faint, while in fact the information is enough to make prediction but not enough to confirm. In the future, those limitations will be improved by new facilities and new methods. On this basis, future research’s direction is clear and will help to improve methods and facilities. Overall, these results shed light on guiding further exploration of exoplanets searching.
