Exploration

Many of the planets discovered by EDEN around nearby stars will be suitable for in-depth atmospheric characterization, mass, radius, and bulk density measurements through follow-up observations with large ground- and space-based telescopes, such as NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope.

Members of our EDEN team also use some of the most powerful ground- and space-based telescopes to analyze the atmospheres of extrasolar planets. New results include Hubble Space Telescope spectroscopic observations of the TRAPPIST-1 earth-sized planets (planets bcdefg).
