Does the exoplanet TRAPPIST-1 b have an atmosphere after all?

Scientists said that on the rocky planet of the TRAPPIST-1 system, close to us, there is still an atmosphere. Before this, the world, which appears around a red dwarf at a distance of 40 light years from us, has become an airless layer, reports Science Alert. New observations of planet b in the TRAPPIST-1 system show that the rocky world is more difficult than scientists thought before, confirming the difficulty in attracting promising outputs t…

Ученые заявили о том, что на близкой к нам каменистой планете системы TRAPPIST-1 все-таки существует атмосфера. До этого мир, который вращается вокруг красного карлика на расстоянии 40 световых лет от нас, считался безвоздушным шаром, сообщает Science Alert. Новые наблюдения за планетой b в системе TRAPPIST-1 показывают, что скалистый мир сложнее, чем ученые думали до этого, подтверждая трудности в получении надежных выводов на основе узкого диа…

On the closest approach to Earth, the planets clogged the atmosphere

Scientists suggest that Trappist-1 b may have an atmosphere rich in CO2. Observations by scientist James Webb indicate young rocks, volcanism, and the need for further studies for atmospheric confirmation.

Scientists admit that the exoplanet Trappist-1 b may have an atmosphere

TRAPPIST-1 b is one of seven rocky planets orbiting the star TRAPPIST-1, located 40 light-years away. The planetary system is unique because it allows astronomers to study seven Earth-like planets from relatively close range, with three of them in the so-called habitable zone. This is the area in a planetary system where a planet could have liquid water on the surface. To date, 10 research programs have targeted this system with the James Webb S…

Scientists open the door for the exoplanet Trappist-1 b to have atmosphere

Latest results indicate that the rock on the surface is at most 1,000 years old

Trappist-1 b is the most hopeful of the seven rocky planets discovered in 2017 around the star Trappist-1, 40 light years from Earth. This planetary system is unique because it allows astronomers to study seven worlds similar to ours from a relatively short distance and with three of them, in addition, in the so-called habitable zone, the narrow orbital strip that allows a planet to be at the necessary distance from its star to have liquid water…

Trappist-1 b es el más esperanzador de los siete planetas rocosos descubiertos en 2017 alrededor de la estrella Trappist-1, a 40 años luz de la Tierra. Este sistema planetario es único porque permite a los astrónomos estudiar siete mundos similares al nuestro desde una distancia relativamente corta y con tres de ellos, además, en la llamada zona habitable, la estrecha franja orbital que permite a un planeta estar a la distancia necesaria de su e…

Not everything is lost: it is still possible that Trappist-1 b has its own atmosphere

Scientists have done modeling calculations that show that fog can reverse the temperature stratification of an atmosphere rich in carbon dioxide.

Os cientistas fizeram cálculos de modelação que mostram que o nevoeiro pode reverter a estratificação da temperatura de uma atmosfera rica em dióxido de carbono.

This planet 40 light-years away from Earth may have an atmosphere

Recent measurements with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) cast doubt on the current understanding of the exoplanet Trappist-1 b's nature. Until now, it was assumed to be a dark rocky planet without an atmosphere, shaped by a billion-year-long cosmic impact of radiation and meteorites. The opposite appears to be true. The surface shows no signs of weathering, which could indicate geological activity such as volcanism and plate tectonics. Alt…

Does the exoplanet Trappist-1 b have an atmosphere after all?

Previously considered an airless ball, an Earth-sized world orbiting a red dwarf some 40 light-years away may have an atmosphere after all.New observations of planet b in the TRAPPIST-1 system reveal that the rocky world is more complex than we thought, affirming the challenges of drawing solid conclusions based on a narrow band of spectral information.

JWST Study Suggests 'Barren' TRAPPIST-1 World Might Have an Atmosphere After All

New observations of the exoplanet have left astronomers puzzled. Its surface does not match what one would expect. This allows two different conclusions.

Neue Beobachtungen des Exoplaneten stellen Astronomen vor ein Rätsel. Seine Oberfläche passt nicht zu dem, was man erwarten würde. Das lässt zwei unterschiedliche Schlüsse zu.
