@nasa.curiosity: The TRAPPIST-1 System (See Description Below) #universe #space #astronomy #trappist1 #trappist1e Nestled 40 light-years away from our Sun, the TRAPPIST-1 system features a rocky exoplanet, TRAPPIST-1e, orbiting an ultracool red dwarf star. This planet is one of seven in the system and holds a special place as the fourth from its star. On February 22, 2017, NASA shared a groundbreaking discovery at a conference: the addition of four new planets found orbiting TRAPPIST-1, detected using the transit method. Positioned in the star's habitable zone, TRAPPIST-1e receives about 65% of the radiant energy Earth gets from the Sun. Its equilibrium temperature, which is calculated without considering atmospheric effects, is roughly 250 K. This might make it seem cold, but it's part of what makes this planet intriguing. Many experts believe TRAPPIST-1e is tidally locked, presenting the same face to its star at all times—a trait that could challenge the potential for life as we know it. Yet, recent studies show that in terms of size, composition, and the radiation it receives, TRAPPIST-1e could be the most Earth-like planet in the system. Looking ahead, the James Webb Space Telescope, successor to the Hubble, will focus on the TRAPPIST-1 system, particularly TRAPPIST-1e, as one of its primary research targets.

We should take care and heal our own planet before trying to go to others.

A “mere” 39 light years!? Do they realize how far that is?

This may require a “bathroom break”… 39 light years is equal to about 229 trillion miles. A light year is the distance that light travels in one year.

maybe humanity shouldn't be allowed to leave until we can live on this planet without destroying it as we are now
