OUTER SPACE Trappist-1 -- 21 Jul 2016 -- NASA & ESO finds potentially habitable planets just 40 light years away...This artist’s impression shows an imagined view from the surface one of the three planets orbiting an ultracool dwarf star (compared here with our Sun) just 40 light-years from Earth that were discovered using the TRAPPIST telescope at ESO’s La Silla Observatory and NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have conducted the first search for atmospheres around temperate, Earth-sized planets beyond our solar system and found indications that increase the chances of habitability on two exoplanets. Specifically, they discovered that the exoplanets TRAPPIST-1b and TRAPPIST-1c (pictured), approximately 40 light-years away, are unlikely to have puffy, hydrogen-dominated atmospheres usually found on gaseous worlds. The planets orbit a red dwarf star at least 500 million years old, in the constellation of Aquarius. They were discovered in late 2015 through a series of observations by the TRAnsiting Planets and PlanetesImals Small Telescope (TRAPPIST), a Belgian robotic telescope located at ESA’s (European Space Agency’s) La Silla Observatory in Chile -- Picture by NASA/Atlas Photo Archive (FOTO: DUKAS/PHOTOSHOT)

OUTER SPACE Trappist-1 -- 21 Jul 2016 -- NASA finds potentially habitable planets just 40 light years away...This artist's illustration shows two Earth-sized planets, TRAPPIST-1b and TRAPPIST-1c, passing in front of their parent red dwarf star, which is much smaller and cooler than our sun. Using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have conducted the first search for atmospheres around temperate, Earth-sized planets beyond our solar system and found indications that increase the chances of habitability on two exoplanets.
Specifically, they discovered that the exoplanets TRAPPIST-1b and TRAPPIST-1c (pictured), approximately 40 light-years away, are unlikely to have puffy, hydrogen-dominated atmospheres usually found on gaseous worlds.
