TRAPPIST

System

By Olivia Mc Mahon, Alice Mc Mahon and Zuzia Zatorska

General Information

Introduction

  • The Trappist System is a planetary system that is located approximately 40 light years away from our sun.

TRAPPIST-1

TRAPPIST-1

Trappist-1 is an ultra-cool dwarf planet which is much smaller than our own sun, 12 times smaller to be exact. These types of stars are much cooler than our own sun. Trappist-1's temperature is approximately 2500K, which is about 2 times cooler than our sun’s temperature.

Red Dwarf Stars

Dwarf stars create helium by fusing together hydrogen particles, these are also called main sequence stars.

  • Cooler sequence stars include M stars (Betelgeuse).
  • Hotter sequence stars include G stars (like our sun which is a yellow dwarf star).
  • Red dwarf stars are M type sequence stars.

Trappist Planets

Planets

The Trappist System has 7 planets. Three planets which are said to be in the goldilocks zone, or the habitable zone. These planets are all closer to Trappist 1 than Mercury is to the Sun. They may still sustain life because the star is cooler than our Sun.

What would life be like in the Trappist -1 System?

What would life be like in the Trappist -1 System?

1. You would be able to see the other planets

2. It would be really dark

3. These planets are tidal locking planets. This is to say that one side of the planet is constantly facing the sun

4. The gravity on the goldilocks planets are: e is 9.12 m/s2, planet f 6.08m/s2, g 10.32m/s and earth’s gravity is 9.807m/s2

5. The days on these planets would be really long

6. The years would be really short- 1.5 to 20 days long
