NASA's highly anticipated James Webb telescope has been in operation for several months, and astronomers worldwide are renewed with excitement due to the groundbreaking discoveries it makes every passing day.
The mission has been years in the making, with billions of dollars invested in the hope of uncovering new information about the universe surrounding us. But what if I told you that the mission could already be doomed to disappointment?
The James Webb telescope was designed to explore exoplanets - planets outside our solar system. One of its main targets was the TRAPPIST-1 planetary system, discovered in 2017, and is believed to have seven Earth-sized planets. Scientists have been eager to study TRAPPIST-1, hoping to find signs of habitability and potential extraterrestrial life.
But new findings suggest that TRAPPIST-1 might differ from what we thought it was. And that could mean the telescope may already be in trouble.
NASA scientists have been pouring over data from the TRAPPIST-1 system, and what they have found is unsettling. The implications could be significant not just for the James Webb mission but for future space exploration as well.

Sensationalist headlines evoke tabloid journalism that dissuades people like me from returning to your future episodes. By touting that the mission is doomed to disappointment because of one early return of an exoplanet observation is to ignore the hundreds of year one observations that are producing absolutely ground breaking science. How can anyone seeking good science communication results lend you any credibility with that attitude and approach? If you want to learn from the best have a look at science communicator Anton Petrov.

If there is a theorized 9th planet, why can’t James web find that but can find exoplanets?

I wouldn't say that the JWST mission is "doomed" just because the data on the Trappist system did not meet our expectations. True, we expected to find signs of alien life and we did not, but the JWST is the first to provide the true results and is therefore a success. The data sheds light which enables us to understand the true situation of planets orbiting red dwarf stars. Finding the truth is always a success.

This is just a lot of blah blah blah. Not going to watch this channel again. The headline is misleading. Too bad. Bye.
