Awesome to see over 100 small (~10m) asteroids discovered in the foreground of TRAPPIST-1! news.mit.edu/2024/mit-ast... The original goal of our observations (and others) was to study the atmospheres of the TRAPPIST planets, but there are also many asteroids zooming by (movie cred: Sebastian Zieba)
