@obs-paris-psl.bsky.social is calling all amateur astronomers to help out!
You will need both a good telescope 🔭 and a CCD camera to be able to observe this occultation.

We looked for an atmosphere on TRAPPIST-1d using JWST, but we didn't see any atmospheric absorption.
So TRAPPIST-1d is quite different from Earth, despite lying just inside the habitable zone. The planet is either:
➡️ A bare rock.
➡️ Very cloudy.
➡️ Has a thin, Mars-like atmosphere.

The TRAPPIST-1 d exoplanet may be Earth-sized 🌍 but it has no Earth-like atmosphere.
Webb’s #NIRSpec has found no traces of molecules that are common in Earth’s atmosphere.

This is a solar eclipse.
Seen from the surface of Mars by the Perseverance rover in 2022.
That moon is the little space potato Phobos. And you can even see sunspots!

Our VLT has found a planet that orbits at an angle of 90 degrees around a rare pair of peculiar stars.
This is the first time we have strong evidence for one of these ‘polar planets’ orbiting a stellar pair 😲
