Scientists Discover Most Incredible Habitable Planetary System

In 1999, scientists stumbled upon a hidden cosmic gem some 40 light-years away from us: TRAPPIST-1 – a red dwarf star. Little did they know how lucky they were. Seventeen years later, our telescopes revealed the star’s first planets. And the very next year, we uncovered four more planets orbiting the M-type star.

Today, TRAPPIST-1 is the most studied planetary system aside from our own. Its 7 worlds are all rocky, strikingly similar in mass and size to our home planet, and some possibly containing more water than the Earth’s oceans.

For a very long time, scientists struggled to study distant worlds, but a lot has changed since the James Webb Space Telescope came into operation.

So how habitable is the TRAPPIST-1 system? And what would it be like to live on one of its worlds?
