NASA just made its big announcement and this is the crux of it: The dwarf star TRAPPIST-1, which is located about 39 light-years from Earth, is orbited by 7 (yes SEVEN!) Earth-sized planets, three of which could harbor oceans of water, making them possible homes for life. Exciting news, right? Read our full report: https://goo.gl/5BiRCM | Space.com

In its first year of science, the James Webb Space Telescope will examine the TRAPPIST-1 star system, revealed on this day 5 years ago. The TRAPPIST-1 system is made up of 7 Earth-size worlds, with at least 3 considered to be in the habitable zone — the distance from a star where it's not too cold or too hot to allow for liquid water on the surface of a planet.

Astronomers have just confirmed a huge discovery: TRAPPIST-1 e, a rocky Earth-sized planet orbiting in the habitable zone of a nearby red dwarf star just 40 light-years away. What makes this exciting? It's in the Goldilocks zone not too hot, not too cold where liquid water could exist. It's solid, Earth-like in size, and might even have oceans, clouds, and the conditions for life. This planet is one of the most promising candidates yet in the search for another Earth. A real game-changer for pla
