TRAPPIST-1 is one of the most interesting systems out there. JWST did observe them but we still don't have the results from all of them. Why is that and when can we expect to know something about their atmospheres? Finding out in this interview.

    What a great interview! Not just the headline content, but also the discussion of scientific priorities and constraints - great insight into the community!

    Hey Fraiser. You being able to produce 1 hour videos on this topic, without having to dumb it down to for the advertising people, and making a living off it to be able to do it full time, is an incredible beautiful thing and represents the best of what the internet can offer us 2024. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
  • @I-0-0-I
    Fraser and guest, delivering yet again. This is the most consistently satisfying channel on YouTube.
  • @shnoooooo
    He has a microphone! THE GUEST HAS A MICROPHONE! A scientist understands how a microphone works! And I can hear him! What an improvement.
  • @Top_Weeb
    I've been waiting for a video like this for quite some time.
  • Absolutely incredible interview, thank you so much for producing this kind of content.
  • @azurata
    Love these interviews. Great questions as always Fraser!
  • Fascinating conversation. This dialogue addresses what I've been wondering as to why there has been no new published papers on the system's other planets for a while now. It's also interesting to hear the larger roadmap and what's been happening behind the scenes. Lots of variables I haven't thought of taken into account and tested being explained in digestible terms too.
  • Your interviews are outstanding. Great guests, smart questions, fascinating insights with what is going on in the science of exploration, and an audience that hungry to hear all about it. Thanks
  • This is my favorite channel on YouTube. Excellent content. I have gained so much information here. Thank you.
  • Thank you, Fraser to bring on one of the most interesting topics and having Professor de Wit, an exemplary academic teacher with deep knowledge, drive, and thoughtfulness about reality. Excellent talk, absolutely captivating!
  • @mNag
    New to your channel, always enjoy following good space and science videos. But I just wanted to say I really liked your guest on this video.
  • Excellent interview. Fraser, we couldn't ask for a better guide to discovery than yourself. You bring us along on this journey with the same passion and curiosity as the rest of us, while instilling and reinforcing the qualities required to do good science, I.e. patience, accepting a lack of clear answer or conclusion and willingness to drop prior held views in light of new evidence. Of course this all goes to the heart of science; that is that we're all trying to advance our collective understanding of the world while acknowledging our present knowledge might be partly or wholly; wrong.
  • Thanks Fraser, another interesting, informative and epic interview - you do these so well.

    This interview answers fermi’s paradox. We simple are incapable technologically of finding worlds the size of Earth with similar transient properties and around a similar star. That’s why we can’t find any habitable worlds and only keep finding hot Jupiters and planet systems packed within mercury orbit. I never understood why no one is willing to acknowledge this reality.

    Solid interview! Good video & sound q. And most importantly, a very interesting expert invited. Thx 🙏👍
