NASA paints quite the picture: "Take a trip with the Exoplanet Travel Bureau to the fourth planet in the TRAPPIST-1 system, TRAPPIST-1e, a world swimming in water in perpetual twilight. Its sister ...

Recent observations with the James Webb Space Telescope suggest that the innermost world of the TRAPPIST-1 system has no atmosphere — or at most, it’s extremely thinly veiled with the tattered ...

What processes are occurring on the much-studied exoplanet, Trappist-1 b, despite it orbiting outside the inner edge of the star’s habitable zone (HZ)? This is what a recent study published in Nature ...

On Feb. 22, astronomers announced that the ultra-cool dwarf star, TRAPPIST-1, hosts a total of seven Earth-size planets that are likely rocky, a discovery made by NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope in ...

Several years ago, astronomers pointed a telescope at another star and discovered something remarkable: seven planets, each one about the same size as Earth. The planets were quite close to their ...
