New Discoveries in the TRAPPIST-1 and LHS 1140 Systems: Rethinking What “Habitable” Really Means
For decades, the dream of discovering a second Earth has driven astronomers to peer deep into the cosmos, searching for rocky planets orbiting distant stars. Two of the most intriguing targets in that quest—TRAPPIST-1 and LHS 1140—have recently revealed surprising new details thanks to observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). These discoveries are changing how scientists think about habitability, atmosphere loss, and what a truly “Earth-like” world might be.
