Would be the life in newly discovered exoplanets

After the discovery of the new solar system around the star Trappist-1 you have to answer several questions to confirm if they harbor life and to know if someday humans will be able to analyze it. While some of these unknowns could be solved in a few years, others require technologies that may not be available for centuries.

Discovery of exoplanets: Can there be life in Trappist-1?

Recreation of the new solar system with seven planets like Earth. A NASA telescope Seven terrestrial planets orbiting around a soft and quiet sun, at suitable distances, so that there is liquid water in them. The panorama can not be more optimistic for Trappist-1 (it is always better that name than its official name of 2MASS J23062928-0502285) can shelter the first sign of life outside our planet.

A system with seven earths of terrestrial size

A team of astronomers has revealed the first system known to harbor seven Earth-sized planets around an individual star (called TRAPPIST-1b, c, d, e, f, g and h). Three of these planets lies within the habitable zone, the area around the star where a rocky planet could hold liquid water on its surface, a key to life as we know it.
