So if TRAPPIST-1e does indeed have an atmosphere, we will soon have the data to settle the enigma of this world.

This means TRAPPIST-1e can potentially have liquid surface water *if* it has an atmosphere with a sufficient greenhouse effect.
So TRAPPIST-1e was a priority target for JWST.

By next year, we should know for sure if this alien planet has an atmosphere. But already there is excitement at hints this is not a barren world.

Most Earth-size planets in our galaxy orbit red dwarf stars. Trappist-1e offers our best chance to learn whether such planets can support life. 🧪🔭
