The question of whether there is life in space has been among the questions that people have been wondering the most for a long time. NASA, which is doing research on a planet similar to Earth, gave an answer to this question. Recent report showed that the rocky planet TRAPPIST-1b, located just 40 light-years from Earth, was discovered to lack an atmosphere.
NASA's Webb Telescope has examined the rocky planet similar to Earth
According to new data from the James Webb Space Telescope, the TRAPPIST-1b exoplanet, the innermost world of the TRAPPIST-1 system, has a temperature of 230 degrees Celsius (446 degrees Fahrenheit) and is unlikely to have an atmosphere covering its rocky body. It has a mass that is 1.4 times that of Earth and a radius that is 1.1 times that of Earth.
TRAPPIST-1b orbits a star with a mass only 9 percent of the mass of the Sun. However, it is the closest planet to the star in this system. Scientists state that TRAPPIST-1b is attached to its star by a gravitational lock. In other words, one side of the planet is always facing the star. The other side looks out into space.
