JWST显示TRAPPIST-1 b 可能有一个大气层, 挑战先前的不育结果。 JWST reveals TRAPPIST-1 b may have an atmosphere, challenging previous findings of barrenness.

使用James Webb空间望远镜(JWST)的研究人员发现,TRAPPIST-1b(一颗地球大小的行星,绕着一颗红矮星运行)可能不像以前想象的那样不毛。 Researchers using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have found that TRAPPIST-1 b, an Earth-sized planet orbiting a red dwarf star, may not be as barren as previously thought. 该研究显示,地球的大气层可能富含二氧化碳或未受天气影响的岩石表面,对早先的发现提出挑战,即它没有大气层。 The study suggests the planet could have an atmosphere rich in carbon dioxide or a surface of unweathered rocks, challenging earlier findings that it had no atmosphere. 研究突出了研究外行星大气层的复杂性,并要求进一步调查。 The research highlights the complexity of studying exoplanets' atmospheres and calls for further investigation.
