“Men and Women wanted for a hazardous distributed computing Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence. Low wages, bitter false positives, long hours of data crunching, overheating CPU's and GPUs. Safe return doubtful if your beverage isn't caffeinated. Honour and recognition in event of technosignal detection.” – ErnestShackleton@setiathome.berkeley.edu

2019.02.08 - TRAPPIST-1 is a system of seven Earth-sized worlds orbiting an ultra-cool dwarf star about 120 light-years away. The star, and hence its system of planets, is thought to be between five-to-ten billion years old. For scientists seeking evidence for life elsewhere, the advanced age provides more time for chemistry and evolution to operate than the Earth had. On the other hand, the planets would have soaked up billions more year’s-worth of high energy radiation from the star’s winds, adversely affecting any atmospheres they host. https://scitechdaily.com/trappist-1-exposed-to-heavy-bombardment-of-charged-particles/
