NASA’s big news Wednesday about a star system with seven Earth-size exoplanets blew up on Twitter. Here’s what people were saying.
You’ve probably already heard by now that a star system named Trappist-1 first identified around 20 years ago has seven planets in a tight orbit — and at least three of them could host liquid water. At just 39 light-years away, the star system is huge news because it may be the best possibility so far for proving there’s life out there beyond Earth.
I decided to take to Twitter to check reactions, but you might as well stop reading now if you want serious or scientific discussion.
