Scientists regard exoplanet TRAPPIST-1e as one of the most – if not the most – likely of the seven TRAPPIST-1 planets to have an atmosphere and be potentially habitable. — Dr Ryan MacDonald (@distantworlds.space) 2025-09-09T06:56:34.587ZIs exoplanet TRAPPIST-1e a habitable world? Scientists estimate the TRAPPIST-1 system to be 7.6 billion years old, significantly older than our own solar system (4.6 billion years). Only further observations will help determine just what atmosphere TRAPPIST-1e has, if any.
