The correct answer is - lava dome.
The lava dome represents a circular mound-shaped protrusion which is a result of a highly viscous and slow magma coming up in a larger volcano. Because it is very highly viscous, this type of magma cannot move far away from the volcano and usually builds up. The high viscosity can be as a result of either degassing of the fluid magma, or from a very high content of silica in its structure. Around 6% of the eruptions in the world create lava domes, usually in convergent plate boundaries.
I believe the answer is Catherine the Great.

See explanation below:
Explanation:
Transit Photometry is the most widely-used and effective to date, it has been a method that measures the light curve of distant stars for periodic dips in brightness. These are the result of exoplanets passing or transiting in front of the star relative to the observer. It is currently the most effective and sensitive method for detecting extrasolar planets, particularly from an observatory in space. When combined with radial velocity data, a transit can also provide a good estimate of the planet's mass. This method detects distant planets by measuring the minute dimming of a star as an orbiting planet passes between it and the Earth.
The main reason direct detection of exoplanets is difficult is because most planets orbit planets orbit at small angular separations on the sky, this means a direct detection is only possible if the star's light can be suppressed or occulted such that the faint light from the planet can be detected.
Some planets are found via the wobble method, using both methods, combining mass and size, scientists can calculate the planet's density, an important step towards assessing its composition.
