Scientists have found many planets in which life is expected to be possible. But would you believe it, if you were told that a planet where there was a possibility for life to flourish can now never exist there? This extraterrestrial named Trappist 1E is such that it has destroyed its own atmosphere and now the possibilities of life in it have completely vanished, whereas earlier these possibilities were alive.
The electric currents that were generated in this planet have destroyed the atmosphere of this planet because this planet is rapidly moving towards the nearby red dwarf star. This story is about the TRAPPIST-1 system in which this planet was revolving around a small red dwarf star. Scientists were assuming that the conditions of this planet are such that life can exist here.
In this system of seven Earth-like planets, there are at least three planets that were habitable areas, that is, they were at such a distance where the chances of life flourishing are very high. Due to this residential area, this area was neither very hot nor very cold, hence there was a lot of scope for liquid water here.

Even if there is such an area, if the planet does not have an atmosphere then liquid water cannot survive there. Current conditions prove that TRAPPIST-1e is in the habitable zone of the red dwarf star and it is 40 light years away from Earth. But its habitability is coming to an end. This can be seen in other planets also.
TRAPPIST-1E is similar in size to Earth but weighs only 0.7 times that of Earth. It is the fourth planet from its star and revolves around the star in 6.1 days. Being small and red dwarf, its habitable zone is much closer than our solar system.
That is why the radiation of the red dwarf is not destroying the atmosphere of its planets, but the wind of charged particles coming from this star is doing its work and destroying the atmosphere of the planet due to which the gases get heated and go out of the planet. .
